How does Esperanza compare Miguel and Papa in Chapter 10?
In Chapter Nine, Esperanza makes comparisons between Papa and Miguel. When Miguel talks about his mechanic job, Esperanza likens his expression to the way Papa used to look when he spoke about their connection to the land. In this way, Miguel is filling the void in Esperanza's life that Papa has left behind - he keeps her grounded and protects her, but he also pushes her to grow and believes in her abilities.
