Sandra Cisneros's "The House on Mango Street" is a collection of connected short stories.

All of the stories are about a Latina growing up in Chicago. (A "Latina" is a girl from a Spanish-speaking family.) It's one of the first works by a Latina to gain a lot of attention here in the United States.

When I need to find more information about a book, a good starting point is amazon.com. Right here (http://www.amazon.com/House-Mango-Street-Vintage-Contemporaries/dp/0679734775/sr=8-1/qid=1160572759/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-7286448-4872756?ie=UTF8&s=books) is their entry on "House on Mango Street." If you scroll down, there are reviews that might help you.
