Las Papas
In chapter 9, Esperanza cares for Mama who is sick. Mama calls for Abuelita, and Esperanza gives her the blanket and tries to finish it as she sleeps. Since Mama is getting worse, the doctors say she must go to the hospital to get better. Esperanza goes to work to help provide for her family and be strong for Mama. She cut potatoes eyes with Hortensia and Josefina in hopes she will be hired to do more work.
