I read this book for my intermediate Spanish class, and I found it to be a wonderful challenge because it expanded my vocabulary and helped me uncover the different ways things can be taken in Spanish. I liked how poetic the book is, though it was a bit confusing at times. It gives great insight into the issues faced by women and the lower classes. It's especially a great novel for those who are from Chciago!
Leí este libro por mi clase de español y fue un gran desaño porque mi vocabulario aumentó y discubrí modas diferentes usar las palabras y las frases en español. Me gusta la carácter poética del libro, aunque algunos partes están confusos. Lo da buen perspicacia en las cuestiónes de las mujeres y las pobres. Especialmente, este libro es fantástico spor las personas son de Chicago.

I was very happy to find this fine reading of this work on Amazon. Now I will be able to use it in my Spanish classes! as you know, the novel is wonderful, and the translation and reading are excellent. I am glad it was available. Now -when is some publisher going to do "Y no se lo tragó la tierra"??

I recommend reading this book in English. Because the author uses some Spanish or Spanglish in the original version, the Spanish translation is hard to understand at times.

Es uno de esos libros que me causaban una sensacion en el estomago que solo se siente cuando miras al amour de tu vida o cuando sabes que es tu ultimo minuto en este mundo. Pero en mi caso la sensacion era porque sabia que tenia que ir a mi clase de ingles y leer este libro que mas odiaba en el mundo. El lenguague que usaba era muy simple y en la forma que ella escribe es como para darle un sentido a los anglosajones de como es la vida de una latina en Nueva York. Lo lei, en ingles y otros amigos tambien tuvieron que pasar por este calvario. Todos los anglosajones les parecia que era un buen libro pero para la mayoria de los latinos de la clase ese libro era el peor y el que mas odiabamos.

The book, House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros is an interesting book. I really do not understand why on some of the critiques people say they did not understand the book. I think it is very meaningful book. If you pay attention to it, there are many messages that Sandra Cisneros wrote on her book. I like this book very much because there are some stories that relate to my life, and I understand the concept of what she is talking about on her book. If there is, one thing that I did not like was that the book has many characters that I have to keep up.
