Explanation:

Option D shows Hope's love for The House on Mango Street by specifically mentioning a favorite chapter and its connection to her personal life (her dad). This indicates a deeper emotional and personal attachment, which is a strong sign of love for the book. Option A is about her excitement regarding classmates listening, not love for the book. Option B is just a fact about a name connection. Option C is about her book - report experience, not her love for the book.

Answer:

D. "The 'Papa Who Wakes Up Tired in the Dark' chapter was one of my favorites because it reminded me a lot of my dad. He works very hard like Esperanza's dad."
