We photographed Stanley at every stop we made along our eight-hour drive to visit relatives. My husband colored him with magic markers and we set off to show him our life. He came without a stitch of clothing so our first job was to dress him. My niece the kindergarten teacher sent Stanley to us shortly before Christmas. At least, that’s how it’s supposed to work. Students send him to friends or relatives and after his visit, hosts return him with a journal and photographs of his adventures. Classrooms everywhere use Flat Stanley paper cutouts in educational projects. And he travels a lot because stamps are cheaper than airline tickets. He slips under doors into locked rooms, and he travels by mail to visit friends. ![]() When he and his brother fly kites, he’s the kite.
