Okay so, what stories did you like about this book so far? >> I like Boys and Girls, because there's this part that says that boys and girls live in their own separate world. And I remembered the story The Giver. Because you know how in The Giver they have their own little perfect world and everything. >> [INAUDIBLE] >> Which one do you like? >> Well, I like Boys and Girls. This is a good section I really enjoyed reading. It was fun. And I like the [INAUDIBLE]. because out of, I remember when I was younger, the beginning of the book, I loved that story [INAUDIBLE]. >> My favorite part was Louie his cousin and his other cousin. It was when they played dress-up, then they were walking around the corner, and these construction working guys were staring at them. Then the store owner started to yell at them, saying they would call the police and get you all arrested, and they ran. And they ran through the back door so go and get caught by the mother. >> The best chapter in the book that we read was the first one which was The House on Mango Street. Because I connect with it with how they moved place to place. And I could relate to that, because my cousin, he'd be always moving with his family, and then he can remember where he lived three houses before he lived right now. So he'd be like, man, I have to be the new kid again, in a new school, in a new neighborhood. >> And that's what happened to me because we kept on moving. We moved from Oakland to Modesto, then back to Oakland, then to Tracy, then Oakland, then Hayward, the back to Oakland again. Like you said about your cousin. I also like the first one because it talks about real issues like when they getting the picture with the broom. >> [LAUGH] >> Yeah, I can connect because even with just like writing, it has really strong feelings and if you have moved from house to house, you can really connect to it. I haven't moved from house to house but moving and it's just sad. >> What do you mean? >> Where you going to move? >> Modesto. >> Have you moved? >> No, well, once when I was little, but I don't really remember that. So I don't really know the feeling, but I hear from other people it's hard, because they don't be around their friends that much. And they don't have people they know, really, so I find it hard on them. [INAUDIBLE] >> I could remember every place that we lived. Because we moved like four times. I remembered every memory [INAUDIBLE]. >> Can you share any? >> No. >> [LAUGH] >> Personal. >> [LAUGH] >> Are there any passages you guys liked from the book? >> There's this one on the first, on page four that says a window, that the windows are so small, do you think that they're holding their breath? If you could imagine that. That the window is so small. >> Yeah. [INAUDIBLE] to come. >> Yeah. >> [INAUDIBLE] >> The house is as big as a hole. >> And then the pipes are leaking. >> They're broke, they don't have water. >> Yeah. >> [LAUGH] >> Something else that I liked about the book was how it had a lot of characters in it and how every person has their own little section of the book. Like that, what was her name? The crazy cat lady. >> [LAUGH] >> Cathy. And then how I connect, I can connect to the sentence. Like once I was watching it. They were doing it, the kids were doing this report. And then Lisa was like, they say she's a crazy lady. But she's really very sweet and everything. And then the lady comes out throwing cats at her. >> [LAUGH] >> Now I remember that. >> Do you like how the story is written? The chapter with two or three pages. Doesn't it get confusing here? >> [LAUGH] Sometimes. >> Yeah. >> [LAUGH] A little bit. >> Yeah. >> because this chapter, for everything they talk about, there's a chapter. >> Yeah, I have to [INAUDIBLE] sometimes to reread to understand what they're talking about. >> [INAUDIBLE]
