Flat Stanley Tours Jamestown and Williamsburg
Many of you may know the sad tale of Stanley, from a book by Jeff Brown called Flat Stanley. Stanley was a boy who is flattened but not injured by a falling bulletin board. Now that he is very thin he can travel all over through the mail.
Alaina in Pennsylvania asked that Flat Stanley visit me, and of course, I was happy to show him the sights. Here is Stanley at Jamestown where the first permanent English settlement was established in 1607.
Stanley visited James Fort and 
the Native American village.Stanley had fun in Williamsburg.
Colonial people welcomed him warmly.
And he met two lovely girls and their dolls.
Stanley visited the Colonial Capitol
and the Governor's Palace.
Stanley even got o sit with Mr. Thomas Jefferson who was writing the Declaration of Independence.
