Hopes and Dreams


So this vignette “Alicia Who Sees Mice” illustrates the hopes and dreams of the little girl Alicia. Alicia’s mother passed away, and she has to do all of the chores, and has taken over her mother’s role. She dreams that her mother will return, and hopes that her life will get better and that she will get an education.

            Also in the vignette “Our Good Day” Esperanza meet to people, Lucy and Rachel. Both Lucy and Rachel hope that Esperanza with pay them so that they can get a bike. Esperanza dreams that she will make and have friends in this new community.

            Another example of hopes and dreams is in the vignette “Sire” where Esperanza gives examples off both. Esperanza hopes that she will one day have Sire as her boyfriend. Also she dreams on having a boy, any boy holding her and kissing her.

            Other than Esperanza, Alicia also has very big plans for her future, she is even studying on the side to do it. Alicia is inspiring Esperanza to work and keep going by doing it herself. Alicia has to do everything for herself and her family.

  1. I think that the analysis is accurate, but I think you could've better proved hopes and dreams through other vignettes as well.
