She looks confused. Sort of how I do when I'm learning something new too. 😉

I still see the determination of a girl learning to read, even though the times weren't the best. And the faces of the other girls could be found in any school yard today.
Children often can still be just children, even in the face of hardship.

teeni and Lisa – I think these kids are just being kids. Their life is probably normal for what they know. While she may be confused, she may be thinking hard — or daydreaming.
Another very fine example of the exceptional work Dorothea Lange did during the great depression.
