Sculptor Auguste Bartholdi gives the dream the form of a lady, holding a torch to “enlighten the world.” Engineers, plasterers, carpenters, and coppersmiths work together to turn the lady into a monument more than 100 feet tall. Doreen Rappaport’s poetic vignettes and Matt Tavares’s magnificent images remind us of the origins of a national symbol—and show that it took a lot of people to make the Lady.A   beautiful, innovative volume.\u003cbr\u003e—School Library Journal (starred review)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHeartfelt…adds   up to a stirring reminder of what Lady Liberty stands for.\u003cbr\u003e—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLarge in   scale and monumental in effect.\u003cbr\u003e—Booklist (starred review)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePoignant   and captivating portrait.\u003cbr\u003e—The Horn Book (starred review)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStriking   illustrations…monumental subject matter.\u003cbr\u003e—Washington Post Book World\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA   reverent and passionate portrait.\u003cbr\u003e—San Francisco Chronicle\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Candlewick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46300378988773,"sku":"NP9780763671150","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780763671150.jpg?v=1767731082","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/lady-liberty-isbn-9780763671150","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
