Esperanza Rising – 750L

By Pam Munoz Ryan



Esperanza is a 6 year old girl from Mexico who lives on a ranch and is very rich. The book begins in 1924 during the Great Depression when her life was wonderful until one day everything suddenly goes wrong. She got forced to move to move out of the ranch and into California were everything is different, the clothes she now has to wear, the people, the area, everything. At first she hated the people and the clothes but then she learns to like it and get used to it. I like this book because it deals with situations that could really happen to someone, and because you never know what’s going to happen next. I thought that it was really easy to read and that anyone who reads it will like it.
