702’s Meelah Releases Her First Children’s Book “Zac’s Favorite Socks” Dedicated to Her Son With Autism

Kameelah “Meelah” Williams, the lead singer of the 90’s trio 702, has proven herself to be a multi-talented individual with a heart of gold. Hailing from Las Vegas, Meelah is not only a singer/songwriter and actress, but also the compassionate founder of P.R.O.U.D., an organization dedicated to autism and special needs awareness. In a heartwarming move, Meelah decided to use her creative talents to write her first children’s book, “Zac’s Favorite Socks,” dedicated to her son Zac.

The book follows Zac, an enthusiastic young boy excited to start the first grade. However, his excitement takes a dip when he discovers that his favorite socks are missing. Suddenly, the day doesn’t seem as bright, and he becomes unsure about facing school without them. Meelah weaves a captivating tale about how Zac copes with his frustration and finds ways to express himself despite the challenges he faces. While the book does not explicitly mention autism, it subtly highlights repetitive behaviors and emphasizes the importance of communication and self-expression.

Meelah’s decision to write a children’s book stems from her desire to spread more awareness about autism and positively impact young minds. Having always admired rhyming books, she realized the creative potential in creating her own, using a character named after her beloved son.

Despite her busy schedule, juggling motherhood, her singing career with 702, authorship, and running a non-profit, Meelah remains dedicated to advocating for autism awareness. She actively engages in speaking engagements, sharing her experiences as a parent of a child with autism to support and inspire others.
