Answer 2

Is this the House on Mango Street? If yes, then she learns how to create her own identity and sense of self through art and by becoming more aware of who she is and what is important to her. As she learns more about her own values and what she believes, she clarifies what is important to her about her friends. She realized that she wants out of her life on Mango street; that she feels too limited by it and that to do that, she must be more independent and less reliant on guys.
