(3) 1-3 Carver Chronicles series. Illustrated by Laura Freeman. Carlos's cousin, Bernardo, is staying with them temporarily, and it's not going well: he doesn't understand how to feed Carlos's geckos, Carlos's papi is bonding with Bernardo over soccer, and Bernardo makes some questionable choices at school. Carlos eventually learns to empathize with his cousin in English's satisfying third book in the series, which focuses on diverse kids at Carver Elementary.
