| Summary | "Our Little Turkish Cousin" by Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade is a children's fiction book written in the early 20th century. It is part of a series that introduces young readers to various cultures through the eyes of a child from those regions. The story centers on Osman, a young boy living in Constantinople, as he navigates his life within Turkey's unique social and cultural landscape. The opening of the book introduces Osman, who cannot remember his first birthday, but is now a big boy with a rich upbringing, surrounded by luxuries and customs that define his life. We see the traditional celebrations surrounding his birth, highlighting Turkish cultural practices concerning children and family. As Osman grows, he begins to experience school, friendships, and the daily life filled with distinct customs and festivities, all while remaining unaware of the societal disparities surrounding him. This introduction sets the stage for a narrative that promises to seamlessly blend education with endearing storytelling, focusing on young Osman’s adventures as he learns about his culture and grows up.
