The House on Mango Street

I should have gotten the chance to read this book around this time last year, when I had lesson plans for it GIVEN to me by teachers who KNEW what the FUCK they were talking about. I should have been able to order the 20 copies I needed for my 8th grade class. I should have been given the opportunity to use it to help them finally read a book with characters they could relate to. I SHOULD have bought one copy and xeroxed it 20 times…

It was a good one. Probably too easy of a read to count, but whatever.
