“Esme, a dark brown–skinned child with long curly brown hair, and Abuela, who also has dark brown skin, visit the market to buy plátanos. When Abuela reminds Esme that plátanos are love, the young narrator muses, ‘I thought they were food. But Abuela says they feed us in more ways than one.’ Esme receives a brief history lesson during the shopping trip, learning that their ancestors picked plátanos from trees long ago.
