The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros

One of the writing turors in the writing center at the university I go to suggested this book to me. It is just such a great book. I recomend it to EVERYONE.

This is a poem from the book that I loved....

I want to be
like the waves on the sea,
like the clouds on the wind, but I'm me.
One day I'll jump
out of my skin.
I'll shake the sky like a hundred violins.
