house on mango street

Q: Why did the author write so many nagitive things.
I wounder why she only wrote about the bad parts of her life if it was about her life im not sure about that because there where so many things that happend in her life I mean story it seams that she might be making it up. I don't really wont to believe that she is making it up, but there are really crazy stories about her friends. some are inapropet like being raped or something on that line or some one being hurt like child abuse. I can understand that her cusien stole some one car and goes to jail, but the other things they are not really believable.

Q:If i could change one thing in the book what would it be?
if i could change something in the book i would most likely make it happier. there are almost no happy stories in that book well nun I do not recale any happy memories in that book all where the hard and trubloing thing that happend to her. i would make it wont more readers to read it becuase of things that good or funny that happend. dont get me wrong the stuff that you went through and to see how far that you have come is great, but if you have to much then it might ruen the storie and nobody might wont to read it.
