I'd never heard of Flat Stanley, but that's probably because my son is in his early 30's and my granddaughter is only 3. Great post. I tweeted and reblogged.

Love it, Jenny! We took Flat Stanley to the American Museum of Natural History in New York City last year. He had a great time. Love the analogy as well.

How funny! I wrote a post recently about Flat Stanley in Kansas City (http://mthupp.wordpress.com/2013/04/22/flat-stanley-visits-kansas-city/), and here you get one from Kansas City! Enjoyed your post.
Thanks. Theresa Hupp

I love the idea but honestly never heard of it. I would think with a fifth grader moving to middle school in advanced placement I would have but I never did. I will have to ask her about it but I'm sure she would have told me about Flat Stanley. I was looking at my growing tbr piles on the coffee table and told my niece in law tonight as many books as I have bought lately I could've bought a kindle and had them on there. I have the kindle app on my phone and I found I like it for reading to relax and fall asleep.

In reply to Karen McFarland. That's wonderful, Karen. And I'm a huge fan of escape. My favorite authors give me that gift. :-)

You are the first person who has introduced me to Flat Stanley, believe it or not. Where have I been? Well, my boys went to grade school a little earlier. Maybe that's why. God, I'm feeling old now. lol. But I must say that I love the concept. And you know that I love doing things for other people. Encouraging others to feel better about themselves is so important to me. Okay, how do I want others to walk away after reading one of my books. Well, this is if I actually finish a book and publish it someday. lol. But... that said, I just want to give someone an opportunity to escape for a while. I think life can be pretty harsh and we all need a little break from our own lives. I want people to feel good after reading my stories. 🙂
