Madam Jar Finds Kindness

Sophia Huang is the author of Mr Roll Finds New Life, named Best Picture Book at the 2022 Singapore Book Awards. She is passionate about upcycling materials into toys and art with her three children, a hobby she shares on her social media page, Craftcycle for Kids. The Let’s Upcycle series builds on her previous work on local flora and fauna, which aims to inculcate an appreciation of nature through play. Sophia hopes to change how people think and relate to the environment one toilet roll, and one book at a time.
