Answer: The correct answer is episodic.

Explanation: Throughout the book you can infer that the narrator, in this case Esperanza, is growing alongside the reader. The book has a unique way of telling its own story through everyday rising actions rather than specific events that lead to a single climax.

You can infer the growth of the narrator by the level of complexity shown on the wording and her inner thoughts.
