Central’s book club is ready for our next book! We are joining forces with Spanish Club to read a relevant Mexican-American story. Our second book of the year is called The House on Mango Street and is written by Sandra Cisneros. The House on Mango Street is made up of 44 short character sketches and stories called vignettes. Cisneros draws on her rich Latino heritage and seduces the reader with precise, spare prose, and unforgettable characters. If you are interested in getting a copy of this book, come quickly to room 501, as there are only 15 copies. We will discuss the book on Monday, November 16th after school in room 501 so you have about a month to read the book. Central, let's get reading!
