BransonWebcast.com | Flat Stanley http://www.BransonWebcast.com BransonWebcast Episode #19 Guest: Flat Stanley He's a true American icon, whose travels have taken him around the world many times over... he's Flat Stanley! As the story goes, one night a young boy became flat during his sleep. While he was sad at first, he came to realize that this unfortunate situation allowed him to fold himself up into an envelope so he could be mailed off to visit friends and family in faraway places. Our Flat Stanley was created by a young student named Heather from Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Her teacher Mrs. Mingacci helped her address the envelope so he could be delivered to Branson, Missouri. During his visit, Flat Stanley took a few minutes to join Dave and Jim in this animated discussion to show pictures of all the fun activities he discovered for kids and families to do in the Ozarks.
