Answer:

              Esperanza Rising is a captivating novel by Pam Muñoz Ryan that takes readers on a journey through the life of a young girl named Esperanza. Set in the 1930s, the book explores themes of family, hardship, and determination during the Great Depression. From the first page, Ryan draws readers in with her vivid descriptions and emotional storytelling.

                Esperanza is a remarkable character in the story. She was born into a wealthy family and lived a life of privilege in Mexico until her father was killed, and her home was taken away. She is forced to leave Mexico with her mother to work as migrant farmworkers in California. Despite the hardships, Esperanza learns to persevere and adapt to her new circumstances. She becomes a hard worker, and her mother encourages her to be grateful for what they have, saying, "We are like the phoenix, rising again from the ashes. We will rise from our own ashes."

             The most interesting event in the story is when the workers go on strike, protesting their low wages and poor living conditions. Esperanza and her mother join the strike, and Esperanza takes on a leadership role, speaking out for the workers and organizing them. During the strike, Esperanza and her mother face danger and opposition from the authorities and the wealthy landowners who try to break the strike. This event is important because it shows Esperanza's growth as a character and her commitment to fighting for justice and equality.

              The tone of the text is hopeful and inspiring. The author's attitude about the subject is one of perseverance and resilience. Through her diction and syntax, the author creates a feeling of hope in the face of adversity. The novel is full of vivid imagery and figurative language that conveys the emotions and struggles of the characters. For example, when Esperanza is feeling hopeless, she thinks, "She looked at her own feet, planted firmly on the ground, and the earth seemed to whisper, 'Patas, patas, patas,' a reminder that she had feet and could walk." This metaphorical language evokes a sense of empowerment and strength.

              The theme that the author is sharing is about the power of family and community. Esperanza learns to value the love and support of her family, even when they are faced with adversity. She also becomes part of a community of migrant workers who support each other and fight for their rights. Through her experiences, Esperanza learns that it is important to stand up for what is right and to help others in need.

                    Overall, Esperanza Rising is a captivating story about resilience and perseverance. The character of Esperanza is inspiring and relatable, and the events of the story are both heart-warming and heart-wrenching. The novel is recommended for readers who enjoy historical fiction, as it provides a unique perspective on the struggles of migrant workers during the Great Depression. The story will leave readers feeling uplifted and inspired, and the message of hope and resilience will resonate with readers of all ages.

Have you ever wondered where chalk comes from? Tiny animals called foraminifera live in the sea. Each of these small living animals makes a tiny shell out of lime. When they die, their shells remain. With time, these shells become layers of white rock which we call chalk. Chalk is often found in places that were once underwater.

It’s worse for her than it is for me—
birthing the twins near killed her.
So I took up my basket and snatched up the twins. One held by hand,
the other on my hip,
We set off for the market.
It wasn’t easy.
The twin on the ground
grabbed the fish from my basket
and threw it. It landed
by the water trough, and I had to wade through the mud to get it back.
The twin on my hip
seemed quiet enough—
till he started to bellow.
I smelled something rank,
and I felt it,
leaking down my dress.
I couldn’t staunch him—
my hands were full.
That’s when I saw her,
Isobel, the lord’s daughter,
dressed in blue.
Her hair was combed, sleek as an otter. Her veil was snow white.
She had a servant
to carry her basket,
so her hands were free
to pinch up her skirt,
and pick her way through the muck,
daintily, daintily.
Her lips were curved,
like the smile of a cat,
and something got into me—
maybe ’twas the devil.
I let go of the twin,
picked up a handful of
dung, filth, God-knows-what
and let fly.
Bull’s-eye. But I didn’t enjoy it—
not for more ’n a moment.
Not after I saw her face.
She hadn’t done anything to me,
and the smutch of the mud
against her blue gown—
the prettiest dress I ever saw.
I ruined it.
The boys in Shamble Lane2 laughed.
They won’t tell on me. They’re my friends. I saw her eyes pass over me
and rest on them. She thought they did it. I ought to have said—
something—I’m sorry,
’twas my doing—
but my little brother
picked up something foul
and mashed it in his mouth.
By the time I got to him,
pried open his jaws,
fished it out,
and bellowed, “No!”
she’d plucked up her skirts to go.
Her back was straight as a knife,
her head held proud, poor girl.
I was sorry,
almost to weeping.

On the way home
I went to church.
I dragged the twins before the crucifix
and knelt down, trying to pray
and keep hold at the same time.
It wasn’t easy. I prayed
that God would forgive me—
that the muck would come out of her dress, that my stepmother wouldn’t die.
It made me think <—- Stanza 12
how all women are the same—
silk or sackcloth, all the same.
There’s always babies to be born
and suckled and wiped,
and worried over.
Isobel, the lord’s daughter,
will have to be married,
and squat in the straw,
and scream with the pain
and pray for her life
same as me.
And thinking of that,
I added one more prayer—
sweet Jesus, come Christmas,
don’t let it be twins.

Tugging at my cap in just the right way,
Crouching low, my feet set.
“Hum baby” sweetly on my lips.

He is a marsupial or a "pouched" animal. The koala is native only to Australia. He has large bushy ears, a black nose, and no tail. He would make a nice pet, but he rarely survives in captivity. Once hunted for his fur, the koala now enjoys government protection.

It was in an empty lot
Ringed by elms and fir and honeysuckle.
Bill Corson was pitching in his buckskin jacket,
Chuck Keller, fat even as a boy, was on first,
His t-shirt riding up over his gut,
Ron O'Neill, Jim, Dennis, were talking it up
In the field, a blue sky above them
Tipped with cirrus.

And there I was,
Just off the plane and plopped in the middle
Of Williamsport, Pa. and a neighborhood game,
Unnatural and without any moves,
My notions of baseball and America
Growing fuzzier each time I whiffed.

So it was not impossible that I,
Banished to the outfield and daydreaming
Of water, or a hotel in the mountains,
Would suddenly find myself in the path
Of a ball stung by Joe Barone.
I watched it closing in
Clean and untouched, transfixed
By its easy arc before it hit
My forehead with a thud.

I fell back,
Dazed, clutching my brow,
Groaning, "Oh my shin, oh my shin,"
And everybody peeled away from me
And dropped from laughter, and there we were,
All of us writhing on the ground for one reason
Or another.

Someone said "shin" again,
There was a wild stamping of hands on the ground,
A kicking of feet, and the fit
Of laughter overtook me too,
And that was important, as important
As Joe Barone asking me how I was
Through his tears, picking me up
And dusting me off with hands like swatters, And though my head felt heavy,
I played on till dusk
Missing flies and pop-ups and grounders
And calling out in desperation things like
"Yours" and "take it," but doing all right,
Tugging at my cap in just the right way,
Crouching low, my feet set,
"Hum baby" sweetly on my lips.
