//**Welcome to Colorado, Flat Stanley!**//

In the middle of February, a boy named Stanley came to visit us in Colorado. Most people come by plane, train, or car. Some even come on horseback. Stanley, however, came in the mail. You see, Stanley is as flat as a board. This is why he is called Flat Stanley. He fits into an envelope, so he showed up by mail, which is a very inexpensive way to travel.

In the pages that follow, you will see pictures of some of the things Flat Stanley did while he was here in Colorado.

The first day he arrived, Stanley came to the library with me. Since I am a full-time student at the Metropolitan State College of Denver, getting my teaching licensure, I have to spend a lot of time at the library when I'm not teaching riding or doing my classroom field work. Here, Stanley is laying back on my notebook, pen, and pencil. He's just starting to get some color after I picked up some crayons at the campus store.
