Flat Stanley Goes to New
Hampshire
• Hi Kaelyn and Alice. I
made it to New
Hampshire safely. I
am busy learning
about the state and the
people who live here.
When I arrived it was
cold. The temperature
was only 15 degrees
but it soon warmed up.

• I found one way to
learn about a new state
is to read the local
newspapers
• New Hampshire has
many apple orchards.
The cool fall
temperatures signal
it’s time to harvest the
ripe red apples

• When winter arrives
the apple trees are
sometimes covered in
snow

to relax in the hot tub

• Mount Washington is the
highest peak in New
England It is 6,288 feet
above sea level and at its
peak is so high trees can’t
grow. One of the highest
wind speeds ever recorded
was on Mount
Washington. The wind
reached 231 miles per
hour on April 10th 1934

• The Old Man of The
Mountain was a famous
landmark for years.
Recently the stone face
fell away. Many people in
New Hampshire were sad
at the loss of this famous
landmark. You will find
his silhouette on many
things related to New
Hampshire

had over 400 covered
bridges. Today there
are around 55 that are
still standing. Most are
now considered
historical landmarks

• I met a new friend
today. His name is
Depp. He is an
Australian Shepherd.
He is considered a
working dog because
he herds animals. I
hope he doesn’t try to
herd me!

• By Friday the
temperature had made
it all the way to 65
degrees and the snow
was melting fast. I
hurried outside to try
to make a snow angel
but it was hard to find
any snow

The state capitol is Concord
The states nickname is The Granite
State
There are several famous
landmarks but Mount Washington
is the tallest in New Hampshire
The climate varies by season, in the

suit with me.

• I had a great time visiting
New Hampshire, I hope I
can return for more fun.
The weather changes
rapidly there, when I
arrived it was cold, a few
days later it was warm (at
least that’s what the
people of New Hampshire
think). Thank you for
sending me on this
adventure.
