Unlimited wishes from a genie? It's too good to be true...

When Janna buys a warm winter hat for a bag lady who can't afford one, she thinks she's merely doing a good deed for another person. What she doesn't realize is that this person is actually a genie. Janna returns home after buying the hat to find the bag lady sitting in her room, where Janna learns that she can now have anything she wants-a dream come true! But when she starts making wishes, she discovers that things aren't quite as simple as they seem. Every time Janna is granted a wish, something is taken from somebody else-the clothes that she asks for are literally transported from her neighbor's closet into her own! And there are other complications, too, when Janna discovers that 'unlimited' has some...well, limits. (Sneaky, sneaky genie.) Janna begins to learn that having it all doesn't mean exactly what she thought it did, and that getting what you want isn't quite the same as getting what you need.
