Flat Stanley goes to Egypt after a letter came to him, saying that it was urgent. He soon finds out the people that send for him are grave robbers! What will Stanley do?
I have never read a Flat Stanley book but this one was a great historical story. You could tell this book was made for younger kids maybe 4 and up. Don’t let that stop you from reading the Flat Stanley books. Stanley sounds really nice and gets embarrassed when people say the great things he’s done. I loved all the characters, the author did a great job making the Egyptian characters realistic with their customs and looks.
If you read the older series of Flat Stanley, you have to read Flat Stanley’s Worldwide Adventures!

Not too bad as a read aloud. This book offered very short chapters so we used it on soccer nights (when we get home past normal bedtime). The story was engaging enough - cute read.
I got an advanced copy from Harper collins. I LOVED it. I read it twice and it's definately in the Keep box!
