What is Can You Hear It Coming - Special about?

Sophie has made a batch of wim-wams, her own strange and smelly sweets. She thinks they look delicious, but no one else wants to taste them. Then a mysterious sound begins to draw nearer. Sophie’s family hear nothing, yet the noise grows louder and louder until something bursts into the house. With lively repetition, detailed illustrations and a wonderfully unexpected ending, this funny and slightly spooky picture book turns Sophie’s unusual sweets into the answer to a surprising mystery.
