I think Esporanza is saying she is a person that wants to get away from mango street. she says she is red because the house is red.
I think the color of the balloon is red because she feels embarrassed.
the balloon is red because she feels like she is dead - mitch taylor

Maybe it is her favorite color, or describes energy or beauty? -Mitch Bear
Ok. Well I really dont think the color matters. But it is probly red because red is a color that stands out from all the colors, so maybe she is saying that she stands out from the rest.-Chris Hollovary
because she is angry that her sister is her only friend and shes so young. So she doesn't feel her sister can be her best friend.
Which means she doesn't have one.

I think that the color is red because thats a color that stands out and she just wants to be free.
Alisa
I think that she compares herself to a RED balloon because its a bright color and it aticks out and that's how she feels about herself that she sticks out in a crowd.
