SILSBEE, Texas — A class of young students in Silsbee is reaping the rewards of their hard work and creativity inside the classroom.

After students in Mrs. Abbie Sadler's kindergarten class at Laura Reeves Elementary school read the book Flat Stanley, the students drew pictures of the main character.

The kindergarteners sent more than 60 hand-drawn Flat Stanleys across the world to different people, including actors, authors, sports teams, companies, and businesses around Silsbee.

The class was in for a big surprise once they received their first round of responses this week.

So far, the students received the following:

  • Signed pictures from actor Tim Allen
  • A letter and picture from the LEGO company and Mantell 
  • A letter and picture from Disney World
  • A letter and picture from Children's author Jan Brett

The Silsbee Independent School District's class is hoping to receive more responses later this month.
