"Based on the original Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown"--T.p. verso. A picture book version of the story in which a bulletin board falls on Stanley while he is sleeping, and he finds that being flat has its advantages.

The members of the Lambchop family react differently when a boisterous genie grants their wishes for fame, power, and the ability to fly.

When Santa quits his job a few days before Christmas because of too many greedy children, his daughter whisks young Stanley Lambchop and his family off to the North Pole to help change the old man's mind.

After Stanley Lambchop goes flat once again, he uses his flatness to help win a sailboat race and to rescue a classmate from a collapsed building.
