The Statue of Liberty Story
A highly acclaimed picture book about the Statue of Liberty, with stunning illustrations that are a visual delight, according to a starred review from the School Library Journal. This book provides a captivating and comprehensive history of this iconic American landmark, from its initial concept to the grand unveiling celebration. The Statue of Liberty, erected in 1886 in New York Harbor, has served as a beacon of hope and freedom for millions of immigrants to the United States. However, the story behind this famous statue actually begins 15 years prior, when the French sculptor Frédéric Bartholdi visited New York to plan the gift he would later present to the American people on behalf of France. Written by the Maestros, this beautiful nonfiction picture book is suitable for both home and classroom readings in elementary schools. It is particularly relevant for units on immigration, national parks, and American history. Additionally, it is recommended for children who are planning a visit to Ellis Island and/or the Statue of Liberty National Monument in New York Harbor.
