"Francisco, Our Little Argentine Cousin" by Eva Cannon Brooks is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young boy named Francisco who lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with his widowed mother and sisters. The book explores his adventures and experiences, including the significance of cultural traditions and familial ties in Argentine life, while highlighting the scenery and social aspects of early 1900s Argentina. The opening of the story introduces Francisco as he engages in a creative project to make a Christmas "pesebre" for his sick sister, Elena. Set against the backdrop of Buenos Aires in mid-summer, the chapter offers vivid descriptions of his home and the customs surrounding Christmas celebrations in Argentina. As Francisco diligently works on his gifts, his family dynamics and economic constraints are revealed, setting the stage for future events in the narrative, including an anticipated visit from his uncle, Colonel Lacevera, who represents a connection to family legacy and adventure ahead.
