I’m Ashlee, aka, Author Ash. I’m a children’s book author of many fun, interactive and engaging picture books!

I live in Southern Maine with my husband, Nate, and two children, Josh and Avery. I also live with my four cats and dog, Ruby!

My love for children’s literature started early through my Mother, who is also an educator. I remember the magic of read-alouds and the creativity it sparked. I then shared that passion with my own children and later, students.

I'm an award-winning Maine children's book author, teacher, and creator of over 15 fun, educational, and interactive picture books. I write, edit, and design, all of my books and gift sets, which pair my stories with matching character stuffed animals for a unique reading experience.

As a teacher, fostering a love of reading is at the heart of everything I do. I enjoy helping families find the perfect book for the special child in their life, whether that's based on reading level, interests, or simply finding a story they'll want to read again and again. I love connecting with readers and helping every child discover the joy of books.

Through my books, I hope to share the magic, creativity and FUN of children’s literature with others.
