Book/Libro: The House on Mango Street - Sandra Cisneros

ENGLISH

I like The House on Mango Street. It is a great book. It is very influential on someone who is 12 years of age. It's about a little girl who is Mexican-American, based a lot in Chicago, and it just talks about the patriarchy in families and how to overcome it.

Me gusta La casa en Mango Street. Es un libro excelente. Influye mucho a un lector de 12 años. Trata de una pequeña niña mexicoamericana. El ambiente físico es Chicago y aborda el tema del patriarcado en la familia de una manera sencilla y de cómo sobrellevarlo.
