Esperanza rising / Pam Muñoz Ryan.

Ryan, Pam Muñoz, (author.). Alvarado, Trini, (narrator.). Playaway Products, LLC, (issuing body.).

Summary:

"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." -- Back cover.
