Meet Stanley Lambchop. He's an ordinary boy with an extraordinary problem. He's four feet tall, about a foot wide ... oh, and half an inch thick. At first being flat is fine. It's fun going in and out of rooms simply by sliding under the door. And it's exciting being mailed to your friends in California for a visit. But it's not always easy being different, and soon Stanley wishes he could be just like everybody else. Will he ever be normal again?...

Hoping to escape the attention brought on by the accident that flattened Stanley, the Lambchop family drives to South Dakota, where they become involved in a wild west adventure at Mount Rushmore.

Asked to travel to Egypt to help with an urgent archaeological expedition, Flat Stanley suspects that he might be helping grave robbers and must rely on his quick thinking, unique flatness, and new friends to make things right.

Eager to help Mr. Pete the Baker make his delicious treats, Flat Stanley and Arthur participate in Mr. Pete's plan to reclaim his customers from a business rival.

Visiting New York City to take part in an International Declaration of Friendship, Stanley joins a group tour of the city, but when he and a new friend get separated from the group, they manage to have fun while searching Manhattan for their families.
