The House on the Mango Street

  

I don’t share much in common with Esperanza. If I were a writer of a same kind of story, I guess it would be much happy one. She is very ironic and it seems to me that she doesn’t really like to “like” something. Maybe she wouldn’t give many “like” s to her friends on facebook as well. Her family is not rich and has many kids. That would be one of the reasons why she is not an obedient child just like her hair never obeys bands. She has more chances to compare herself with her brothers and more chances to try to get her mom’s attention. It’s like every day is a competition. I only have one big brother and we grew up in peace. That’s why I don’t understand the people who always make a complaint…

  2. It seems like you had a really happy childhood. I hope things continue to work out well for you. For some people, I think complaining is part of their conversation style (but probably you wouldn't enjoy their conversations).

  3. Both you and your brother relationships is really great as we can read on your article. I guess Esperanze should do something, I mean make some actions to change what she is. she just say her complaints regarding her name, appearance, etc. It's kind of ironic as you say. She should change the current way of thinking.
