Ashley Craft began writing cookbooks in 2020 and is the best-selling author of the Disney and Universal Parks cookbooks. Her books have sold over 700,000 copies and reached the top 10 on bestsellers of USA Today and the Wall Street Journal. Her first book, The Unofficial Disney Parks Cookbook, was ranked fifth in all books on Amazon. Besides Ashley's passion for Disney and Universal theme parks, she also loves cooking at home with her kids. Currently ages 11, 9, and 6, her kids are constantly clamoring to be helpers with whatever meal is in production. In 2019, she began The Cool Kids Cooking Club online to have a fun way to include her kids in the meal preparation process and start an online community of kids and their parents making the same meals at the same time. It was a success for everyone who participated, and she was able to see her children eating better and trying new foods for the first time.
