Liberty's Journey by Kelly DiPucchio. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780786856268.

Lady Liberty has welcomed immigrants to New York for more than one hundred years-but shes never traveled beyond her island. Shes curious to see the country that has become home to the millions who have passed beneath her torch. She wants to go on an old-fashioned road trip! So one foggy morning, the giant Lady tiptoes off her pedestal and begins her journey. Down alleyways, along railroad tracks, through cities and small towns, across deserts, and over mountains, she greets surprised and delighted Americans. The country is as captivating, as Lady Liberty knew it would be, but New Yorkers miss her terribly. How can they persuade her to come home, where she belongs?
