About the Book

Tres primos son transportados a 1862 donde juegan un rol importante en la Batalla de Puebla, razón por la que hoy se conmemora el Cinco de Mayo, en esta encantadora aventura fantástica de secundaria. La historia vive con magia. Eso es lo que la alocada tía Xia les dice siempre a los primos Jorge, Camila y Siggy. El atrevido Jorge no podía ser más distinto a sus primos: Camila es una soñadora que adora a los animales y Siggy es un aspirante a influencer que tiene una fiesta exclusiva a la que asistir. Y su tía tiene muchos secretos incluyendo una misteriosa espada con diamantes incrustados que Jorge definitivamente no debía ver. Pero, cuando los tres primos caen en un portal del tiempo en el patio de su tía, son transportados a 1862 y a un pasado lleno de maravillas y peligros. Para regresar al presente deben apresurarse y entregar la espada al general Ignacio Zaragosa justo a tiempo para la histórica Batalla de Puebla en México: el surgimiento de la celebración del Cinco de Mayo. Mientras su viaje a México los lleva a través de la Guerra Civil americana, los primos observan como gran parte de la historia ha sido moldeada por comunidades Latine. Ellos deben encontrar sus poderes internos para asegurarse de las cosas pasen como tienen que pasar, sin alterar el pasado.

Review :
"This high-flying, fast-paced adventure by Otheguy (Sofía Acosta Makes a Scene) gleefully embraces and explores Latino history, particularly the intersection of Mexican and United States relations. . . . an accessible and entertaining look at the events that led to contemporary Cinco de Mayo celebrations."--Publishers Weekly "[T]hemes about understanding your heritage and taking pride in who you are will resonate with Latine readers especially. . . A high-stakes story that provides historical facts and intriguing magic wrapped up in one exciting quest."--Kirkus Reviews "Otheguy's novel is deeply original, action-packed and brimming with historical richness and wit. It is particularly satisfying to see how her characters change and grow on their journey, ultimately gaining a better understanding of their culture and its influence on the United States at large."--The New York Times "With black-and-white illustrations throughout, this historical action-adventure tale reads like a blend of Rodman Philbrick's The Mostly True Adventures of Homer P. Figg (2009) and Treasure Island. . . . There is quite a bit to learn here about Cinco de Mayo and readers will find Otheguy successful both as an author and a historian."--Booklist "Cousins in the Time of Magic wraps hidden history in a fascinating, fast-paced adventure full of cousin shenanigans, time travel, and danger. I couldn't put it down!"--Kate Messner, award-winning author of the History Smashers series "Cousins in the Time of Magic is perfect for readers in search of adventure steeped in history. You will laugh. You will learn. But most importantly, you will cheer for this trio as they discover untold histories and reveal the true meaning of family."--Tami Charles, New York Times bestselling author of All Because You Matter "A heartfelt adventure that's filled with hope, history, and the importance of family."--James Ponti, New York Times bestselling author of the City Spies series "In the rollicking, informative, and moving pages of Cousins in the Time of Magic, Emma Otheguy balances history, adventure, and political activism with a sure, deft hand. A delightful book that's sure to become a timeless classic!"--David Bowles, award-winning author of They Call Me Güero
