Sophia Payne

Sophia Payne writes picture books and young fiction and tries to stay away from broken computers. Her writing often reflects her Indo-Caribbean heritage as well as her motto in life: always be kind. She is also the author of Faruq and the Wiri Wiri, illustrated by Sandhya Prabhat. Half Guyanese and half British, Sophia Payne was raised in the UK and now lives in Germany with her husband and two children.
