      Duck Tour!

      Ever since a bulletin board had fallen off the wall beside his bed—and made him as flat as a pancake—Stanley Lambchop had traveled all around the world. Sometimes he went on secret missions—as the world’s most famous flat person, there were some problems that only he could solve. And sometimes he went on vacation, just for fun. But even though Stanley had been on almost every continent—and visited many famous places—he had never, not once, been on a duck tour.

      Actually, he didn’t even know what a duck tour was! But he was about to find out.

      The Lambchops were visiting Boston for a long weekend getaway, and Boston, his mother told him, was famous for its duck tours. This is the best way for us to get an overview of the whole city, Mrs. Lambchop said as they hurried to get in line. Once we see the whole city, then we can decide what else to do while we are here.

      That made sense to Stanley. The only problem was that his father and his younger brother, Arthur, already knew what they wanted to do . . . and it was not a duck tour at all.

      Mr. Lambchop wanted to see Boston’s historic sites. Boston is one of America’s oldest cities, Mr. Lambchop told his sons. It started as a town in the British colony of Massachusetts. Then, in the 1700s, some colonists took the first steps toward freeing our country from British rule. Without our Revolutionary War, we would not have the country that we live in today!

      And we would not have the aquarium, or the science museum, or the Boston Red Sox either! said Arthur. "Those are the things that I really want to see on this trip." Arthur was more interested in new Boston than in old Boston. And he was a lot more excited about sports than history.

      Stanley walked ahead of them a little. He wasn’t sure what he wanted to do in Boston. He only knew what he didn’t want to do. Something was bothering him. Right now he didn’t even want to think about it.

      Stanley was the first to hand over his ticket and board the strangest vehicle he had ever seen. It looked a little like a boat, but it had wheels. With a flat top and rows of seats inside, it also reminded Stanley of a school bus. If a school bus had rainbow stripes!

      I don’t know why they call it a duck, said Stanley to Arthur, who was walking up behind him. It doesn’t look like a duck at all.

      Mrs. Lambchop pointed at the words on its side. Look! she said. "Its name
