  3 stars & 3/10 hearts. While not a bad sequel to
  Flat Stanley, it wasn’t as great. It definitely felt like a remake of Book 1, just tweaked a little. I skipped books 2-3 and still understood everything perfectly. The characters were the same as before, just as enjoyable. Stanley had some fun new adventures. There was more good humour. The magic session was only a sleight-of-hand/trickery thing so with a few words edited it was fine. Overall, it was a fun read.
  
  A Favourite Humorous Quote: “A bank got robbed,” the first policeman told the driver. “By two women. You ice cream fellows seen any suspicious-looking females?”
  “My!” The tall [robber] shook his head. “More and more these days, women filling roles once played by men. Bless ’em, I say!”
  Beside him, the stout [robber] said hastily, “But bank robbing, Howard, that’s WRONG.”

  I think it was amazing because in the middle of the night, Stanley turned invisible. There was bad weather that night and Stanley was eating fruit next to the window. At the end of the story, Arthur, Stanley’s brother, had an idea. He gave Stanley fruit and turned on the sink and shower. Mrs. Lambchop got out skillet and a wooden spoon for thunder, Mr. Lambchop got out a flashlight for lightning, and Arthur made a whooshing sound for wind. Nothing happened at first, but then Mr. Lambchop said that he saw Stanley's hand touch Stanley's cheek. Arthur said that he could see Stanley's pajamas. Stanley looked down and exclaimed that he could see his feet! That is why it is so amazing.

  Another familiar Lambchop adventure, fascinating for young readers
  
  Who doesn't want to be invisible? My son loved the idea. We read a few of Stanley's other adventures a while ago, and he loved the sound of this one. It is also a new version illustrated with fresh and modern-looking drawings by Rob Biddulph, which brings the slightly old-fashioned story and Lambchop family a new relevance.
  
  In a plot reminiscent of the original, Stanley accidentally (and somewhat unrealistically!) is transformed physically, to a state of invisibility... As before, he has adventures where this is at first fun, foiling robbers and showing brotherly solidarity with a slightly jealous Arthur, and the two must come together to help him return to normal.
  
  The language includes some American terms or words that aren't in common usage in the 21st century, but my son didn't seem to lose any sense of what was going on.
  
  The story mirrors quite closely the first Stanley story, though this does work. Our favourite section was the one in which Arthur and Stanley 'appear' on TV, with Stanley using his invisibility to wow the audience with his brother's magic tricks.
  
  7 short chapters, read over a few bedtimes. Comforting structure and familiar characters, really liked the fresh look of the book.
  
  One for ages 4 or 5 and above.

  Stanley is Invisible! No one can see him. So like the original adventure, Flat Stanley sets out to use his uniqueness to better the world and have some adventures. Stanley first plays matchmaker to a couple, then he invisibly appears on a television program, and again fights crime!
  
  So fun! I've been wanting to read these myself, but will definitely plan to read them to my son when he is a bit older! Stanley is a classic!

  Had to read this book with my really low-level kids. I haven't read any of the other books, nor have I actually even heard of this series.
  
  Took me about 15 minutes to read it, it's about a kid who accidentally becomes invisible. That's all. My reaction to it was purely business-like, I honestly couldn't dream up any kind of real opinion or thoughts about this book as an adult.
  
  The students seemed to more or less enjoy and understand it. They liked discussing what they would do if they were invisible. That's really all I can give you. Better than reading one of the Jack Stalwart chapter books in terms of illustrations and story. It at least has a lesson about jealousy, I guess.

  Stanley finds himself in quite the pickle, when he wakes up invisible one morning. Much like being flat, being invisible has its perks at first, but that fun soon fades. The Lambchop family helps Stanley deal with his current situation, and try to find a way to make him visible again. A cute and fun story.

  I remember this book! I’m so glad I stumbled upon it! This was my all time favorite book! It really got me into reading! I remember just re-reading it over and over again! I haven’t read it in years, still good memories.

  These books are so dorky and contrived with frightfully ridiculous, stilted dialogue. But I kind of like all that about them.

  The beginning and ending of this book made no sense whatsoever.

  July 2:
  Flat Stanley’s mother dress a picture on a balloon exactly like flat Stanley’s face and wherever he goes he takes it. And I do not know where he is.

  It was very exciting. It was exciting because it was about a normal boy who turned invisible. I wanna say a big word about it. It was mysterious.

  Decent series, probably best for advanced younger students who need something a little more challenging but still age appropriate.

  My love of reading started when i was young, and it gives me immense pleasure to provide books to Spread the Word Nevada, an organization that passes them on to children in the community. They are a terrific organization supporting an important cause. If your local I encourage you to check them out. For those living further a field, look in your own community, their may already be a similar program in place. And if not, you can always help start one.

  Myself, I go out on the weekends and
  shop thrift store and bulk book lots to rescue books and donate them. Sometimes I'll find a book I remember reading when I was young and will read it again before passing it on.

  Stanley turns invisble. This is apparently book 4 in a series which seem to be all about Stanley and the wacky things that happen to him. Why is it called Flat Stanley? I believe this happened in book one, but really just need to call it Stanley as there is no signs of flatness here.
  
  Aha! Now that I have read the first three books I know what it was called Flat Stanley, but my above sentence stands correct, there is no need to call him that, apart from that, it was just a re-read!
  
  Well apparently I've read this twice before and further more the omnibus puts this as book three in the series when well here lists it asa book four, these are the sort of conundrums that keep me up at night. Agree with the rest that I was formerly banging on about.

  These Flat Stanley books are really pretty cheesy, but they are cute and my son loves them. In this one, Stanley becomes invisible one night during a storm. The story follows Stanley through a couple adventures, including how he foils a bank robbery, and then his brother Arthur's great idea on how to get him to be visible again. Like I said, while really cheesy and obnoxious to me, my kids love them and enjoy them! They're fun early chapter books and for my older kids to read to my younger ones.
