Since her adventures in British Columbia, Flat Katherine has taken a well-earned break. First she went into the real Katherine’s school and talked to several classes there (well, real Katherine did the talking. Flat Katherine just waved.) And then, just before Christmas, we decided to send Flat Katherine on another adventure. We popped her in the mail and sent her down to Clearwater, Florida, where real Katherine’s grandparents spend their winters. So on Christmas Day, Flat Katherine went with Bob and Sylvia Taylor (the grandparents) to the beach!

Here are some photos that they took with her, along with their descriptions:

Where will Flat Katherine go next? We’ll wait and see!
