Flat Stanley's Worldwide Adventures
review 1: Stanley Lambchop wakes up one morning to discover that a bulletin board had fallen on him during the night. Stanley is left unharmed,but as flat as the proverbial pancake!! Stanley's family are used to his unusual shape, but poor Stanley isn't always so happy about it, even though his shape can prove quite useful at times !! In this book, Stanley and his brother Arthur are quite taken with a ninja TV star, Oda Nobu. Instead of writing a letter requesting a signed autograph, Stanley decides to mail himself instead. Soon Stanley is having an adventure in Japan with his hero. He discovers, however, that his hero is not all he seems. This book is excellent for upper KS1 or KS2 for exploring the Japanese culture. I used it with my guided reading group who really enjoyed researc... morehing the culture, especially the "shinkansen",Japan's high speed bullet train. However,it was quite a struggle to interest the girls in thiss book; the samurai warrior/karate theme seemed to go down much better with the boys!
review 2: I thought this book was a good book to read. I thought of that because when I was reading the book I enjoyed reading and comprehending the book. I also liked this book because It talked about karate and how stanley went on different adventures. I gave this book 5 stars because I really enjoyed reading the book and it inspired me in many ways. For example on how stanley goes on so many adventures.I also liked this book because like I said how it inspired me in many ways as well as reading more than 1 of these books. I also liked this book because I had some connections. I also liked this book because this book made me just wanna keep on reading it. This is all information on what I thought of the book as well as why I liked the book. less
