As your ferry comes nearer to the little island, the figure of the woman becomes larger and larger. The Statue of Liberty is huge!
On Liberty Island your class is met by Kathy. Kathy is a guide and she ex- plains all about the statue to you.
The Statue of Liberty, she tells you, was the idea of the French sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. He convinced the French people to give it to America as a gift, in honour of friendship and love of liberty we shared. The sculptor thought that the statue could arrive in 1876 when the USA celebrated its 100th birthday. But it took time to raise money for the statue and it arrived in the USA in October 1886.
"Whotasks it a statue of?" Eileen asks.
"Nobody knows whose face the statue has," Kathy tells her, "but some people think ittasks Bartholditasks mother. The statue represents the spirit of liberty. Did you know that its real name was taskLiberty Enlightening the World**?"
"Is that because of the light of the torch?"
"Yes, the torch represents the light of liberty across the ocean to Europe and Africa."
"Can we climb up in the torch?"
"Libertytasks torch is closed to the public. Ittasks safe but the ladder inside the torch is narrow that a group of people cantaskt climb it."
"Awww," some kids say.
Kathy says, "Oh, youtaskll do a lot of climbing before the day is over. The statue is a hundred and fifty-one feet high. It is placed on pedestal that is eighty-nine feet high. You can take an elevator to the foot of the statue, but from there you have to climb a hundred and seventy-one steps to get to the top of the head, where you can look out and see the most beautiful parts of New York!"
"Lettasks go," LeRoy Barth says.
"First," Kathy says, "Itaskll take you inside pedestal to see the American Museum of Immigration. The Statue of Liberty was the first thing that immigrants saw when their ships came into New York Harbour."
