Soon America will be one hundred years old. I share my dream of a birthday gift.
Children surely will be impressed by a birthday gift of the size and significance of the Statue of Liberty! This beautiful picture book tells the story of how Édouard de Laboulaye's original idea evolved into sculptor Auguste Bartholdi's design, and became the massive sculpture that ultimately traveled by ship to America. The details of how the sculpture was forged and the foundation built are fascinating. For ages 4-8, but awe-inspiring to readers of any age.
