His mother clipped coupons from magazines and newspapers, kept a vegetable garden in the summer, and shopped at Penney’s and K-M
art. Their family ate a lot of frijoles, which was OK because nothing else tasted so good, though one time Alfonso had Chinese pot stickers and thought they were the next best food in the world. Why does Soto most likely include this characterization of Alfonso’s mother in the story?
My favorite animal is a dog, because they are lovable, cute, and they are very smart and loyal. I have a dog at home, just for company. Dogs make really great friends. I hope this helps... :)
