Flat Stanley’s guide to Washington DC

Washington DC the District of Colombia was named after the great discoverer Christopher Columbus.

The capitol and the White House are some of the most famous buildings in the world and are on the cover of the book itself!

The official flag of Washington DC has three red stars and two read stripes on a white background which is based on the shield from George Washington’s family coat of arms

The National Air and Space Museum in the city is apparently the most popular in the world with more than 9 million visitors per year!

The statue of Abraham Lincoln is nearly 19 feet tall  – the real Abraham Lincoln wasn’t that tall of course but he was 6ft 4 inches so he was a very tall man indeed!
