      Stanley Goes Skiing

      Ha, ha! Arthur Lambchop crowed as he skied past his older brother, Stanley. Last one to the bottom is a frozen pancake!

      Stanley grunted as he dug his poles into the snow and strained against the frosty Canadian wind. Ever since he had awakened to find himself flattened by a bulletin board, Stanley had been putting up with Arthur’s teasing about his shape. He didn’t really mind—Arthur was a good brother: cheerful and loyal and a lot of fun.

      And so what if being flat made it nearly impossible to ski? It had some mighty big advantages! For instance, Stanley could now travel by mailing himself anywhere in the world for a fraction of the cost of airfare. And he’d sure had a lot of adventures that would not have been available to a rounder boy!

      His shape had been a big help to others, also. Stanley allowed himself a little smile of pride as he flapped another few feet down the slope. Wasn’t his mother wearing her favorite ring because he had been able to slip down into a storm drain to retrieve it? Wasn’t Abraham Lincoln’s nose still in place at Mount Rushmore because he had turned himself into a human Band-Aid? And right now, weren’t there a couple of museum sneak thieves playing poker in the city jail who were very sorry indeed they’d ever run into a boy flat enough to pose as a painting?

      Just then Arthur whizzed by for a second time. "See you a-ROUND!" he shouted.

      Stanley struggled harder against the wind and reminded himself even more firmly he should not feel sorry for himself. Why, already on this vacation his flatness had been an advantage: Because he could simply bend his legs at the knees, he had not needed to rent skis. With the money this had saved, the Lambchop family had enjoyed a hot chocolate party in the lodge the night before.

      Stanley paused to catch his breath. Really…so what if he wasn’t aerodynamic anymore? The sun was shining on the snowcapped mountains, and the air felt fresh on his cheeks. The scene spread
