Give Your Child the Perfect Gift
I ordered this book for a child who collects Statue of Liberty items.
All Ebay showed was the cover and notes on the text, history, etc.
When the book arrived, I was stunned by the BEAUTY of the illustations.
I was expecting photos of the statue's constructin, etc. but what I saw
were glorious artist illustrations. The colors thoughout are soft blues,
golds and yellows. The images are bold, and each composition is original
& striking. I am currently teaching art to adults and children, and I
am using the book as a model of color harmony and originality. The text
is not dumbed-down, but is engaging to adults and any child over age 5.
Our nation and our troops are now keenly aware of American pride and
heritage. I plan to order more copies of this book for birthday and
Christmas gifts. The boy who collects Statue of Liberty memorabilia
is now age 12, and this will be the best "find" for him I have purchased.
Treat yourself to this lovely book and share it with children and friends.

This is a perfect book for the curious, growing toddler,!
Any toddler would be happy to turn the fat pages of this
book. It is a handsome size, has a padded cover, and
each page has vivid colors and delightful pictures.
An extra plus is that the book is a happy teaching tool.
I look forward to seeing my one-year-old niece turning
the board-pages of this book.
