Another hilarious adventure starring everyone's favourite Unicorn Expert, Sophie Johnson!

Sophie Johnson is great at sports. In fact, she's a sports superstar!

She's about to attempt the longest, hardest race anyone has ever tried (also known as a fun run) and she's taking her training very seriously (by eating plenty of sweets and chocolate for energy, of course).

Join Sophie as she imparts her pearls of racing wisdom and goes for gold in this dazzling, uproarious picture book from dream team Morag Hood and Ella Okstad.
