In preparation for Aguilar's author talk, students completed an in-depth close read from a section of the novel, "The House on Mango Street" by Sandra Cisneros. Students then read and analyzed Aguilar's poem, "how to speak of the mango," which was inspired by the novel. Students meaningfully reflected on how literature inspires other texts and creative works.
