CHAPTER

The Oxidised Statue of Liberty

The copper statue was originally golden red But something has happened to that in time. Since it was built, it has oxidised Giving it the distinctive green colour we see today. In the UK, we spell this word C-O-L-O-U-R But in the US, we spell it C-o-L- O-R So no final U there Okay, so you can go inside the statue and take the lift up to its crown To see some incredible views of New York.
