Long-Answer Response
1. The white heron appears in Chapter 1 when Lucia is on the beach. Later, she uses the white heron for her project about bird migration. It is important to her because some herons migrate past both Cuba and Nebraska, and so it reminds her of her own journey. (Various Chapters)
2. The reader can understand why Lucia is annoyed because she has always tried to behave herself, respecting her parents’ and the Baxters’ wishes even when she does not understand them. The reader has also seen Lucia’s thoughts and actions become more mature during her time in the U.S., because she has to adjust to a new culture, make new friends, and take care of her younger brother. This makes it natural that Mama’s words would make Lucia feel misunderstood. (Various Chapters)
