Summary "Our Little Cuban Cousin" by Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade is a juvenile fiction work likely written in the early 20th century. This charming story offers a glimpse into the life of a young Cuban girl named Maria as she navigates the tumultuous backdrop of Cuba's struggle for independence from Spanish rule. The narrative aims to educate young readers about Cuban culture, family life, and the impact of war through the eyes of a relatable child protagonist. The opening of the story introduces Maria, who lives in a small house near Havana with her family. As the tale begins, she awakens to a warning call from her older brother, Ramon, signaling impending danger from Spanish soldiers nearby. Tension fills the air as they prepare to escape to safety, demonstrating their resilience and resourcefulness. Despite the threat of war, the Diaz family finds moments of joy and childhood play, such as a picnic and imaginative games, revealing Maria's innocence amidst the chaos. The beginning sets the stage for a heartfelt exploration of family, courage, and the daily realities of life during a time of conflict. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
