Flat Stanley: Novel-Ties Study Guide

Chapter book flimsy paper with black and white illustrations which are few and far between. The cover and pages seem very thin. But the stories are captivating and excite the imagination as you would hope.

I have been searching my memory for quite some time trying to remember some of my own favorite children's books. This one comes to mind immediately! I've seen the updated versions of the Flat Stanley series and nothing can compare to the original. I love finding these classic books and sharing them with my own children now. It's like being transported back to your own childhood. These old gems are helping me create new memories today!

Flat Stanley books are great books because they are funny and interesting. None of the books are similar to the other books in the series, and each book has a surprise. I also liked that the books have interesting illustrations, a lot of words on each page and the font is easy to read. (review by 8-year old son)

CDs of 4 very popular Flat Stanley series chapter books read by author Jeff Brown. My grandson (6 1/2) was already familiar with the stories as his parents had read two of the titles. These CDs allow him to listen to the charming activies and antics of Flat Stanley again and again. Listening and recalling helps children with their visual imaginery and memory of the delightful tales. I hope that by next year he will begin to read along with the tapes. His parents report that they have taken the CDs with them on auto trips and played them with the whole family enjoying the adventures of Stanley. If you don't know this series and have children or grandchildren rush to your nearest library and check out at least one title. I wish there were more audio CD sets available for beginning readers. His whole family will soon be attending a musical performance of Flat Stanley performed by a children's theatre in a nearby city!

An excellent book for early readers to help get to grips with sentences and some interesting words.
Solid story line, lots of adventure, no malice, good fun.
Easy to relate to with many opportunities to expand on life values.
