The house on Mango Street

The house on Mango Street was written by a Mexican American writer named Sandra Cisneros. The story was very short from the short stories textbook that I read. The story talks about how a family of six lived in a small house and how the narrator keep still have memories living there. As the story progresses, he talks about how he still have the image of that house while his family moves a lot from house to house. That house was very special to him and his family and it motivated him and his family to work hard and buy a bigger and better house. I liked the story besides it was short, but it stick to the theme where they used the house on Mango Street as a motivation to work hard and aim at buying a new big house.
