(4) YA When Maya's glamorous cousin Pinky arrives in Manitoba from India, everyone, including Maya's boyfriend, finds her fascinating. Pinky lends Maya her statue of the Hindu elephant god Ganesh, grantor of wishes, and Maya begs him to help her. Her wishes come true in most unexpected ways as she struggles to learn self-acceptance. The fantasy element is amusing but a bit jarring.
