Little Miss Liberty is a story about the Statue of Liberty. She is born green and grows bigger everyday. She loves to read and has a quirky sense of fashion. And then one day, she decides to set off to find a home of her own. This was a cute story about a topic I've never read a book on before, but I didn't find it amazing or groundbreaking.
Note: I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley. I was not compensated in any other fashion for the review and the opinions reflected below are entirely my own. Special thanks to the publisher and author for providing the copy.

Little Miss Liberty, recently republished in paperback and digital format, chronicles the statue’s life, beginning with her “birth” in Paris. She grows incredibly fast, that her parents can only wrap her in a sheet.
Little Miss Liberty is an avid reader, reading everything and anything she can get her hands on. She is always reading. In doing so, she promotes the idea of being a learner at every age. And she implies that liberty is built through learning and openness to new ideas. In addition, Little Miss Liberty has a strong will and character.
Robertson wonders less about the origins of Miss Liberty, instead pondering the character of this symbolic figure. The only real fact may be that she stands on a pedestal in New York. But that is not the point.

Good read with kids. Interesting and fun to read. Great illistrations. Would recommend reading.

Though I got it via Netgalley, I read it outside of Netgalley because I was not able to download it on time.
I had mixed feelings while reading book. But may be kids would like it.

Little Miss Liberty was unique from the start. She was born a little green and outgrew her classmates and even her parents. She grew so much she realized that she needed to go out into the world to find her rightful place. So she left Paris and ended up in America.
This is more than just a story about how Little Miss Liberty ended up on Ellis Island. This is the story about a girl with a love of books and confidence in her own skin who was friend to all. She travels the world searching for a place to belong.
This is a wonderful story with fun and iconic illustrations. It's the perfect addition to any youngsters bookshelves and I'll definitely be adding this empowering picture book to our shelves in the future.

Little Miss Liberty by Chris Robertson is is fictional story with wonderful illustrations how Lady Liberty came to live in New York Harbor.
From the moment Little Miss Liberty comes into the world, it's apparent that she is special. As a young girl in Paris, she realizes she is different from her classmates. For one thing she's green and she grows in leaps and bounds towering over her friends. She is also kindhearted to all those she meets. Eventually, she outgrows pretty much everything and sets out on an adventure to find the place she has always known she was meant to be.
Even though this is obviously a story of fiction, it is a wonderful and creative way to introduce little ones to The Statue of Liberty and all that she symbolizes. As with his other stories, Chris Robertson's talent as an illustrated shines through. His choice of simple drawings and cool colors are the perfect mix for this charming story.
I received this book from Xist Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book adds and interesting view on the Statue of Liberty. It tells her life story if she were actually a person. How and where she was born, grew, lived, and decided to Stand in New York. The pictures are interesting as well. They are done in watercolors. The book is short, a great way to spend a few minutes of quiet time with a child or a great quick bedtime story. The words aren't to hard for beginning readers.

Not impressed. I was hoping it was a bit more about the statue of liberty for younger children. Well, it is for younger children...it's just not that good. And it's really not about the Statue of Liberty or what it stands for.

illustrations were a little disappointing but well written story appropriate for the age range.

This is a sweet read. My only concern is that the message and symbolism that the Statute of Liberty represents may not be recognized by the young reader in this story.

'Little Miss Liberty' by Chris Roberson is a picture book about an unusual young girl. I hoped for a bit more history than I got, but it's still a cute little book.
Little Miss Liberty was born in France. She is a bit green. She also grows faster than other kids. She likes to learn and soon outgrows her home, so she goes to seek a new home.
The Statue of Liberty was created in France, and did eventually end up in the United States. It does convey some of what the statue stands for, but I had hoped for it to be a bit more meaningful. It gets close in a couple places, but then steps away. It's a cute enough storybook and the illustrations are fun to look at.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Xist Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

This is a sweet little book, it very cleverly explores the things that the statue of liberty stands for.

A picture book where the famous Statue was an actual human, growing and learning through knowledge and kindness, etc. I loved the artwork, so others will, and the young will like the lesson even if to an adult's eyes it's a little cheesy, and courtesy of Trump only a half-truth at best.

I thought this was going to be a fictionized story of the origin of the Statue of Liberty, which of course, came from the French on the anniversary of American's 100th birthday. That would have been a cool book.
This book is not that.
It's hard to say what this book is. It starts out as though it might be a fictionized version, because she is born in France, but after that it jumps on the crazy train. The Statue, known as Miss Liberty, goes to school, and does things and keeps growing until she is as tall as the Statue is. She explores the world, and decides that the island where the statue sits now, is where she wants to be.
I'm sorry, but this is not a story of the Statue of Liberty, nore is it a story of a girl who became the statue. This is just a mess of potage, as my mother used to say. I think it would be confusing, and strange, for any child who reads it.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

I was surprised by this book. I though it would be more of a biography of the Statue of Liberty. It was a cute book still and I liked how the book showed what the Statue stands for. It ended rather abruptly for me. Still, it is interesting and students may enjoy this.

This is a unique story about the Statue of Liberty. Miss Library is a little girl who continues to grow bigger than everyone else. She reads a lot, learns to help others, and to explore new and distant lands. Once she finds the perfect home, she stands tall and proud, a beacon of hope and light.
