Many thanks to my great - nephew Judah for asking me to participate in the The Flat Stanley Project. Similar to the travels of my Panama Bag or the famous travelling gnomes who are kidnapped and taken on trips around the world, the idea is to send Flat Stanley out to meet new people and see new places. Then he returns to the schoolchildren to share his various adventures of life beyond the classroom.
If this is the first you've heard of the Flat Stanley books by Jeff Brown, now is the time to add these fun titles to that all - important summer reading list! Summer vacation is the perfect time to check out Stanley's Original Adventure, as well as the entire series of sequels. (You can also watch on youtube.)
