Author Sandra Cisneros uses her own experiences growing up in Chicago to tell the story of fictional Esperanza Cordero. Esperanza's story begins when she and her family move into a house on Mango Street in a poor area of Chicago. Though she welcomes the change and has high hopes, things are not as picturesque as she expected. The house is smaller and her neighborhood is racially segregated. As a Chicana, or a Mexican-American girl, she and her family are a part of the Latino neighborhood. From the beginning, Esperanza pictures life beyond Mango Street. Since she cannot leave yet, she adapts by making friends and having some good times, like exploring the neighborhood and playing double dutch. As a 12-year-old, struggles with her changing body, as well as adult emotions like grief and shame. Fortunately, Esperanza has writing to keep her company in a world that doesn't seem escapable yet.
