Flat Stanley is a paper cut-out that some elementary school students send on a trip.
He is flat so he fits nicely in an envelope.
He then travels around with the person receiving him.
Here is Flat Stanley's visit to Grandma and Grandpa on the farm in Minnesota.

Dear Emma,Flat Stanley had a wonderful time visiting here. He has been fun to have around. He is kind of quiet but friendly.
