Mama tells Esperanza that being rude to people because they're poor is like being rude to her friends Hortensia, Alfonso, and Miguel. She needs to cut it out, and quick. Esperanza feels ashamed and sulks in the corner. The little peasant girl is still crying so Mama gets Esperanza to help her make a doll out of yarn.

haven’t read that book in 2 years — sorry if I’m wrong
