Welcome to Math is All Around Us

Hello and thank you for visiting! I'm Shameeka Browne, M.Ed.-educator, author, and lifelong math lover. Queen of 24 is my debut children's book, inspired by the classic 24 Game® and my personal journey as a student who fell in love with math. My book is a celebration of culture, confidence, and curiosity. 

On this site you will find updates and sneak peeks leading up to my book launch. Thank you for being part of this journey making math joyful, relatable, and accessible for every child.
