Review:

A fun, positive, inspirational Biograpy/Selfhelp Journal. You can tell that Ashley wrote this book from the heart and how much she loves Disney. I had heard of her clothes line (Her Universe) and I knew she was the voice of Ahsoka, but I never knew all the stories behind them. She wrote her book in a way that makes her story interactive. When she hits certain points in her life she has areas for the reader to reflect on their own lives, and hopefully it will help their dreams come true.  There is an abundance of life lessons tied to Ashley’s life and to Disney characters. It’s done in a fun and friendly manner which makes it a perfect read for teens young and old looking for some guidance.  I loved this book so much and would definitely pick up a copy for a teen in my life. It might make a great graduation present for a Disney lover!
