Long Answer
1. Trampita is Panchito’s younger brother. As an infant, he was left to sleep in a tent with Panchito and Roberto on a mattress placed on the ground while his parents worked the night shift at the canning factory. During the night, while his siblings slept, Trampita rolled out of the tent. He is called “Trampita” (Little Tramp) because Mama dressed him in clothing that she found in the city dump. When both Panchito and Trampita are older, Trampita cheerfully assumes Panchito’s janitorial job in order to allow his older brother to leave home to attend college and becomes a powerful symbol of the theme of the importance of family and community in the book.
