Résumé

A Mexican "Grapes of Wrath," based on a family story, from the award-winning author Pam Munoz Ryan.

Esperanza pensaba que siempre viviria con su familia en su rancho en Mexico, y que siempre tendia hermosos vestidos y una linda casa llena de sirvientes. Pero una tragedia inesperada las obliga a ella y a su madre a escapar a California en la epoca de la Gran Depresion, y a asentarse en un campamento para trabajadores agricolas mexicanos. Esperanza no esta preparada para el trabajo duro, las penurias economicas o la falta de aceptacion que ahora sufre; pero cuando su nueva vida se ve amenazada, debera buscar la manera de sobreponerse a las dificultades: su vida y la de su madre dependen de ello.

Esperanza thought she'd always live with her family on their ranch in Mexico--she'd always have fancy dresses, a beautiful home, and servants. But a sudden tragedy forces Esperanza and Mama to flee to California during the Great Depression, and to settle in a camp for Mexican farm workers. Esperanza isn't ready for the hard labor, financial struggles, or lack of acceptance she now faces. When their new life is threatened, Esperanza must find a way to rise above her difficult circumstances--Mama's life, and her own, depend on it.
