Flat, will travel
Flat Stanley may be a paper doll, but he?s no couch potato. He has gone dog sledding in Antarctica, sat behind the controls of a U-2 spy plane in Texas, visited Mount Everest and marveled at the Taj Mahal. He has been to all seven continents and met world leaders like President Clinton. And he has the pictures to prove it. ?He has taken me to places I never imagined,? Dale Hubert, creator of the Flat Stanley Project, said recently. Since the Internet site www.flatstanley.com went online in 1995, the peripatetic Stanley has inspired thousands of grade-schoolers to pick up crayons and create their own version to send on vicarious adventures through the mail.
