My Opinion of This Book
Esperanza Rising is a very interesting book. It is interesting because it tells a story about a girl who is named Esperanza that moves to a camp to work with her mother. I find it very interesting. It's in the past during the great depression. The girl Esperanza goes through a lot of things. Her mother gets sick her father dies and her house burns down. So I think that this book is also very sad. As you can see that is my opinion of the book Esperanza Rising.
