Among the many symbols of freedom in America, the Statue of Liberty stands above them all. Today, the statue is a unique America

n symbol and one of the most recognizable icons of the United States. Many do not realize, however, that the statue was made in France and was given to America as a gift to honor democracy. French artist Frederic Auguste Bartholdi created the statue that is 151 feet tall—305 feet tall with the pedestal and foundation. Alexandre Gustave Eiffel, the builder of Paris' Eiffel Tower, engineered the iron framework.
Agreed upon in a joint effort, the French people would be responsible for the statue and its assembly, and the American people would build the base. When the fundraising for the pedestal began to slow in America, publisher Joseph Pulitzer opened up the editorial pages of his newspaper to support the effort. Pulitzer criticized both the rich, who had failed to finance the pedestal construction, and the middle class, who were content to rely upon the wealthy. The statue, he argued, was paid for by the masses of the French people. It was not a gift from the millionaires of France to the millionaires of America. It was a gift from all of France to all of America. On August 11, 1885, less than five months after the drive had been recharged, and two months after the arrival of the statue in America, Pulitzer was able to announce the success of the fundraising campaign. Once there on Ellis Island, the statue stood to greet the many immigrants who came to America.

The story is as follows:-

Pihu was the only daughter of her parents. They were very rich. Pihu was a pampered child and became very ill disciplined and lazy because of her parents extra love and pamper. She never used to do complete her homework on time. She was never on time for any task given to her.

One day her grandmother came to visit them from the village. She was not very happy with Pihu's behavior. So, she decided to take care of her and teach her good things. To reform her, she decided to give her one task everyday. At the end of completion of each task, she would get a reward from the grandmother.

One day her Pihu was very hungry when she returned from school and wanted to eat food. Grandmother behaved very lazily to prepare food for her. Then after some time she cooked food for Pihu and took a long time to prepare it. This way she taught Pihu the value of time.

We should always do things on time. Grandmother explained that had she prepared before her coming from school, it would have saved time and Pihu would not have got stomach ache because of hunger. Pihu realized her mistake and promised to behave well and do things on time.
