Acclaimed by critics, beloved by readers of all ages, taught everywhere from grade schools to universities across the country, and translated all over the world, The House on Mango Street is the remarkable story of Esperanza Cordero. Told in a series of vignettes - sometimes haertbreaking, sometimes deeply joyues - it is the story of young Latina girl growing up in Chicago, inventing for herself who and what she will become. Few other books in our time have touched so many readers.
