Figurative Language wiith Esperanza

 ~Esperanza finally made it to America.  Ms. Ryan, the author, really makes her text interesting with the use of figurative language.  Her idioms are off the chain!  Her metaphors are the bomb.  Her similes are like smooth chocolate melting in your mouth, and her personifications are just jumping off the pages!  We love Esperanza.  Marta is as sweet as a pickle left out in the sun in July!
