In this lesson, Max the monkey has a big problem: he wants to convince the rest of the BookFlik group that they should spend their weekend building a giant treehouse library rather than visiting the local museum. Pupils will step into Max’s shoes, using his enthusiasm to help them draft a compelling argument.
