"Flat Stanley" is a series of books that are read in 3rd grade classes
throughout the country.
Students make a paper Flat Stanley and mail it, along with a blank journal, to someone on the
List of Participants or to a celebrity or politician. The recipient treats the visiting Stanley
as a guest and takes it places. After a few weeks Stanley is mailed back with a completed journal
and perhaps some photographs, post cards, and souvenirs. You share with your class what Stanley
has done, where he has been and plot his travels on a map. Some classes send out hundreds of
Stanleys. Having your class on the list means being prepared to have others send Stanleys to you, too.
Here is Flat Stanley with The Smith Brothers at the Suncoast Hotel in Las Vegas.
