She is a published poet and her talents exceeds anyone's ideas of a child's poetry. Her book just released and having interacted a few times with Maya online, I am amazed at her maturity. Find her at<a href="http://mayaganesan.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Allegro</a> I'm looking forward to reading her collection. Do check out a sample of her writing. “At only eleven years old, Maya Ganesan writes poems with humor, grace and insight that invite readers of any age into a world rich with detail. While her poems meditate on nature and the little things in life, her work is not simple in the least, but filled with an attentive curiosity and surprising freshness. I am amazed by the talent of this young poet and can only imagine the wonderful things she will bring to the literary world in her future.” – Kelli Russell Agodon, Author of Geography and Small Knots Maya Gansen is 11.
