The Flat Stanley Collection by Jeff Brown

Stanley and his family will fly into space on the Star Scout, a brand new top-secret spaceship. Stanley Lambchop is going into space! When the residents of a distant planet send a message to Earth asking for a meeting, the President of the United States chooses Stanley to represent the human race. Can Stanley find a way to send him home again?

Strange things are always happening to Stanley – especially on the day that he polishes his mum’s lamp and a boy genie pops out of the spout! Mischievous Prince Haraz can grant everyone any wish they choose, and he has great fun helping Mr Lambchop to beat his horrible tennis rival Tom McRude, and helping Mrs Lambchop to become famous! Even better, when Stanley and his brother Arthur can’t decide what pet they want, Prince Haraz creates an amazing brand new pet: a lionphant! But after a while, Prince Haraz starts to miss his own friends and family. But how will he ever fill out? A classic comic story which gets children thinking about how it feels to be different. But it’s not always easy being different, and, once the novelty begins to wear off, Stanley wishes he could be just like everybody else again. And it’s a hoot being posted to your friends in California for a holiday. It can be fun going in and out of rooms simply by sliding under the door.

At first, Stanley enjoys the benefits of his strange predicament. One night, a giant pinboard falls on top of him, leaving him completely flat. Stanley Lambchop is an ordinary boy with an extraordinary problem.
