“Flat Ninja!”
This Flat Stanley book, while remaining true to the character we have gotten to know in previous stories has a different feel.
The adventure here is more subtle in some respects, even as we enjoy some of the tried and true elements of the series: Flat Stanley and Arthur having some fun sibling moments, Flat Stanley traveling by postal mail, and meeting someone new.
As with his adventure in Egypt, Flat Stanley is learning about trusting others, and the complexities of friendships. But more than that, his new friend helps him explore WHO he is (Stanley Lambchop) vs. what he is (flat), and in the process how to remain true to himself, honest with himself, and both authentic and genuine instead of trying to be what he thinks others expect.
