* Shy ice cream bells' giggle*
Looks like Mexico
Esperanza is describing her and Nenny's laugh sound like a pile of dishes breaking. They share the same laugh.
Yes, that's Mexico all right.
Esperanza is describing Rachel and Lucy's laugh.
The theme of this vignette is sibling relationships. "But me and Nenny, are more alike than you would know." This supports the theme by showing us that they are similar. " Nenny says: Yes, that's Mexico all right. That's what I was thinking exactly." This shows that they get each other very well and that they have a strong sibling bond.

Nenny says it looks like Mexico. Nenny is saying what Esperanza was thinking.
I chose this vignette because it reminds me of my siblings. I relate to this very much because me and my sister always get each other. As I read into this book I enjoy it even more because it shows us real situations that some can relate to.
