Esperanza Ortega possesses an abundance of treasures: fancy dresses; a beautiful home in the bountiful region of Aguascalientes, Mexico; and the promise of one day rising to Mama’s position and presiding over all of El Rancho de las Rosas. But a sudden tragedy shatters that dream, forcing Esperanza and Mama to flee to California and settle in a Mexican farm labor camp. In California, they confront the challenges of hard work, starting over, and learning to accept a new life. When Mama falls ill and a strike for better working conditions threatens to uproot their new life, Esperanza must relinquish her hold on the past and learn to embrace a future ripe with the riches of family and community. Inspired by the author’s grandmother’s story, Esperanza Rising has been embraced by millions of readers across the world since it first published in 2000. This graphic novel edition, brought richly to life with striking, masterfully composed visuals, resonates with fresh meaning and speaks directly to a new generation.
