Archie loves camping, he loves the fresh air. The sounds in the night, the wind in his hair. The warmth of the fire, the lovely smoke scent. But more than all that, Archie just loves his tent. When everyone else thinks that Archie's little tent looks more inviting than their own and they begin to pile in, Archie has to come up with a quick plan to get them all out. Can you guess how?
