House on Mango Street
The Book is called the House Mango Street By Sandra Cisneros
The reason why we red this book because Mrs Howard wanted us to read the book also to do our Vignette book Project.
My favorite thing about the book was all the different stories / Vignettes the book contains
One responsibility that I see in the book is Esperanza taking care of her sister and standing up for her friends.
I would recommend this book to someone because the book is very fun and interesting to read and also there is a lot of good vignettes in the book.
The Adventures of Alexis Martinez
I feel proud of my book I think that I did a good job on my book. What I am mostly proud of my book is how I created it. Something that I would want to work on is my adventure of the future vignette. The reason why I say I want to add more to my Adventure of the future because I feel like I didn't write a lot for that vignette.
