She'd always have fancy dresses, a beautiful home filled with servants, and Mama, Papa, and Abuelita to care for her. But a sudden tragedy forces Esperanza and Mama to flee to California and settle in a Mexican farm labor camp. Esperanza isn't ready for the hard work, financial struggles brought on by the Great Depression, or lack of acceptance she now faces. When Mama gets sick and a strike for better working conditions threatens to uproot their new life, Esperanza must find a way to rise above her difficult circumstances-because Mama's life, and her own, depend on it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scholastic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780439120425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 262\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.50h x 5.10w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Golden Sower Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Sunshine State Young Reader's Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Sunshine State Young Reader's Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePW Notes and Reprints\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2002 pg. 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooksense '76 Childrens Fall02\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2002 pg. 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKliatt\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2002 pg. 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/08\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/14\/2014 pg. 111\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e44286 \/ Esperanza Rising\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.3 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 6\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Pam Munoz Ryan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637199859868,"sku":"9780439120425","price":6.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_8c5bde6e-8bb0-43f3-bc72-c711d274e8bf.jpg?v=1603844175","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/esperanza-rising-9780439120425","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
