Summary
Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown
One morning, while lying in bed, Stanley’s bulletin board falls on top of him and he is suddenly flat as a pancake! Stanley isn’t hurt and doesn’t mind being flat; he even finds it helpful at times. But soon, people start making fun of him for being different. This adventurous story with an important message is perfect for mini lessons focused on identifying the author’s purpose, making inferences, making predictions, retelling and summarizing, and visualizing.Watch an online read aloud of Flat Stanley or read the book on Epic here.
