Flat Stanley - The Rest of the Story

From Flat Stanley


Flat Stanley was sent to us from a second grader in Massilon, Ohio. He came with instructions (but no dietary restrictions). We were to take him around where we lived, take some photos or collect some postcards. We were to collect a few. We kept Stanley for about 2 weeks. Well, ok, three weeks. But during the last week he stayed in his envelope and we spent our time getting his story put together and the photos printed and the box prepared. A few photos came out to be almost 80 with about two dozen postcards. We aren't sure if the teacher will love us or hate us.

While we had a great time, it wasn't all fun and games for him. Stanley had to brave the local spiders - who were much, much larger than he expected

And, he had to help out with the shopping

and with chores around the house.

But, through it all Stanley kept a smile on his face and his sense of fun and adventure.

He was, in all, a very good guest. And, we're missing him.

Now, don't you want to schedule YOUR Australian Adventure??
