Dorothy childhood is similar to Esperanza and Sally because they both was poor working class. People made fun of their house. Dorothy and Esperanza both fantasize about a better life that would make them happy. The difference in Dorothy home, she lives with her mother,step father, sisters and aunt and she lived in the country. I dont think her mother was an immigrant and she did not know who her father is. In Esperanza house, she, her parents and siblings sleep in one room and they lived in the city. Also they moved alot.
