I enjoyed "Esperanza Rising." To summarize it, it's about a girl who is treated like a princess who overcomes changes in her family as they move from her father's ranch in Mexico. She has to face hard changes in her life in order to adapt. It really is a soft story, and there was a lot of foreshadowing. However, I was fine with that because the foreshadowing presented symbols that embodied the book's morals and themes. It's a great book. 5/5
