Flat Stanley is a brilliant book about a flat boy. When I say flat I mean truly flat, actually one half inch thick. He does not only see the world as big, he sees it as flat.  Stanley has problems with being flat so he gets a lot of stares. Stanley has a brother Arthur, he likes to go to the park a lot with Arthur.

Stanley and his brother like to fly their favourite kite. Stanley's brother had a really good idea. Arthur tied Stanley on the kite and he said, "up, up and away." Stanley went really high and he got a lot of weird and happy looks.

Two hours has past and Stanleys brother was really hungry, so he heard a group of boys say to his brother, "do you want to have a hot dog?", of course he said yes. He let the kite go and Stanley went really high, two minutes later Stanley got stuck in a really big tree.

Hours had past, Stanley had been there for a really long time, eventually his brother came and tried to get him down. Stanley finally got himself down, he was really mad at his brother. By the time they got home it was midnight, Stanley scooped himself into his p.j's and went to bed.

 Stanley's brother heard Stanley crying and he went to see why? Stanley's brother had a little talk about the whole situation about being flat, Stanleys brother got the blower and put it in Stanleys mouth, he was not flat anymore.

Will Stanley go flat again? Will he get bullied or teased? Will he be different? How will he react? Go read the book it is amazing and you would get so many ideas of making your own book It will inspire you.
