What was the main idea of The Stolen Party?
Rosaura's mother didn't want her to go to the party because she thought the rich people would only see her as the maid's daughter. While there, Rosaura had fun and helped the magician, even though Luciana's cousin was mean to her. At the end of the story, Rosaura doesn't get a present like the rest of the kids but instead Senora Ines gives her money. This shows that they still didn't treat Rosaura as an equal but just like she was there to help as a job.
