Claim To Fame:

Ameka Ali recently created an interactive children's app book series that will be available very soon at the iTunes App Store and Google Play. Ameka Love is an educational interactive e-book series created by Higher Mind Apps . The series centers around a girl named Ameka Love who uses her mind through meditation to go on adventures related to an activity in which she would like to participate in or some place she wants to go accompanied by her black labrador puppy named Nubi. The interactive e-book series was developed through research to empower children to know that they can be, do, have, and create anything they would like in life. She uses the power of meditation. Ameka Love teaches children to observe situations and solve problems as they explore the world with her. Along the way, children learn colors, numbers, and geometry and are introduced to astrology, meditation, and chakras. It was also designed to encourage engagement through the e-book interactivity modules.
