Is anyone familiar with the Flat Stanley story?.

Along the same lines as Flat Stanley, my nephew has embarked on an adventure with his third grade class as Flat Will. Flat Will is hoping to have many adventures over the next few months and I'm asking for your help.

My sister thought "who do I know who sends a lot of mail???". When she mentioned the project I was pretty sure I knew some people who could send Flat Will on a wild adventure...hee hee...

Flat Will is travelling with a small composition book. Approx. 7x8 1/2 inches and 3 oz. Please write about Flat Will's visit with you in the book and pass it on to the next person in line. The school has an email address and address available if you would like to send a postcard from Flat Will back to school while he is still travelling. Pictures could also be added to the book or emailed to school.

We will take this swap to the forum for the sending order and to keep track of Flat Will's whereabouts. Please send Will on to his next destination as quickly as possible. I will start since Flat Will came to spend some time at auntie's house first.

I know we can make a third grader REALLY happy with this project!

My son did this project a few years ago. We gave Flat Zach to one of our friends who lives in NYC and she took pictures of him next to the Flatiron Building. It was awesome!

Please see the forum thread for the updated sending order.

Thank you again for playing. I'm getting Will prepared for his first leg of the journey now.

Hi guys! I don't really mind when I get this but, Our school year runs differently to US. I'm really into Phoebe being able to show and tell this. Her school year ends about dec 20 and starts a new year- grade 3 around jan 27 or so. If I get him on the holidays I can still make use of him in a kids craft workshop- but would rather Phoebe be able to take the project to school. But all good- I understand sometimes it just falls a certain way . Thanks Mandy xxx
