To help the children learn about other places &ndash; I think &ndash; they are asked to have someone take their &quot;Flat Stanley&quot; with them on a trip. So &quot;Flat Stanley&quot; accompanied me to Germany on the plane. When I took his picture at my assigned seat, the lady across the aisle asked: &quot;Is that Flat Stanley?&quot; It seems she has a nephew who has her take his &quot;Flat Stanley&quot; on trips, too. (I think she was a flight attendant en route to an assignment.) So Stanley could not even travel with me without being recognized. Upon arrival in Germany, I mailed Sean&#8217;s &quot;Flat Stanley&quot; back to him and emailed him the photos of Stanley&#8217;s adventure with me. He&#8217;ll have something to tell his class this next week!<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"comment2\">Comment from Mary Ann Bates:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve learned all about Flat Stanley with my second grade class this year, too.
