The last, 'Stanley, Flat Again!,' was published the year he died. Flat Stanley became the star of a series of perpetually popular books. Jeff Brown had worked in Hollywood and as an editor and writer in New York before creating Flat Stanley, a hero for the youngest readers whose adventures, with illustrations by Tomi Ungerer, were first published in 1964.
