Eugenio Bomba Rossi, mixed race Brazilian child, was born in February 23 1892 in the Brazilian Para. His parents and five other siblings are dirt poor and stocky, having been slavish employees of a tyrannical rubber company for years. Then they had to give him away to an uncle and aunt, whose children, the twins Giro and Wari, have started homework at the age of 4 years old.

Bomba Rossi might have had a rocky start in life, but at the age of four years, he got hand me downs of indigenous clothing and became fascinated with the jungle and its wildlife. It will ultimately lead him and his extended fam to meet Cody Carson when the former was only nine.
