A Day with Esperanza

By: Marisa C
Taiwan, Grade: 6

Today, I helped Ma and Pa plant their potatoes in our little garden. The land lady said we could only plant potatoes in front of our rented house because she liked potatoes. I think that was kind of selfish of her because we have to pay her half of what we grow each year and I hate potatoes and she loves them. Tomorrow I shall go to school. I wanted Ma to tutor me but she doesn't have time. I hope school is fun.
