Talk:Esperanza Rising

Untitled
This page is much better than the bad job I originally did for it, but it needs some serious revision. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ealster2004 (talk • contribs)

I just remembered I have a signed version of this book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JokersAce0 (talk • contribs)

Expansion
I think this article needs to be expanded. It is much to short and has much to little information. If I were a member of Wikipedia, I would do it myself. My suggestion is to add more background information on the author and maybe some trivia. I believe that would make for a much more interesting article. Update: I don't know anything about the the author and I don't have any trivia. So will someone PLEASE clue me in?! 172.128.101.161 01:16, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Extras
This page needs pictures or illistrations to explain better! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.182.37.179 (talk) 00:26, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Film
Nowhere in the article does it mention the film adaption starring Amanda Balon as Esperanza. Will someone please add? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tweedle20 (talk • contribs) 19:02, 31 July 2008 (UTC) and also shae rochelle tanner lives on —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.85.146.22 (talk) 22:14, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

TO DO
Sept. 29 2017 -- This page needs serious edits. The first section has terrible capitalization and punctuations errors.

Hi1 I did some work on this, adding the sections on critical reception and awards. I also cut the plot way back, to fit WP:MOS guidelines, but I did it quickly and it's not necessarily well written. The background section should be redone, there's a lot of info to add, but it all needs to be cited. This book gets assigned in school a lot, its a pity it has a poor article, but there's only so much time... Tlqk56 (talk) 15:47, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

Please review the BACKGROUND section of this article.
Not only is the Background section uncited, it has very little relevancy to this novel. Background is talking about anti-Mexican laborer sentiments in Oklahoma whereas this novel is set in California. I'm not saying there weren't similar anti-Mexican feelings in California, but this "background" seems pretty random for the actual subject.

Esperanza's Character List
I added a character list to this page, as most other books on Wikipedia have. However, it is incomplete. I'd be happy to finish this page at a later date! Dom.estalive (talk) 21:06, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
