Spikes, Ashley: - Ashley Spikes is a native Georgian whose lifelong dream has been to author a children's book. One of her techniques is to include situations and scenarios for kids that can be applied to their everyday life. She incorporates engaging, relatable characters that are energetic and fun-loving. Inspired by one of her daughter's toys that both her children came to love, she imagined using it as the main character of her lovable stories. And so, Pinky Kangarooski was born. Ashley and her husband, Andrew live outside of Atlanta and have two amazing girls; Olivia and Charlotte.
