Fuzzy and The Statue of Liberty


When Fuzzy was in New York with Nana and Papa he got to see the Statue of Liberty. It’s on an island in The New York Harbor and it was much bigger than he thought it was.

Fuzzy learned that the people of France gave the Statue to the people of the United States in 1886 as a sign of friendship. Over the years, the Statue of Liberty has grown to signify freedom and democracy.

The Statue of Liberty was brought from France in 350 pieces and it took 4 months to reassemble it on the pedestal that the United States built. Fuzzy thought that was very interesting.
