charge of making laws to keep the
citizens of america safe. Come on lets keep exploring.

the tallest building in the world.

I wanted to show you another important American symbol.

I want to ring it!
Wait, Rocco! You can't. It is protectedby rope. It only rings on special
occasions like Independence Day.
Aw man!
Come on, Rocco! Let's keep exploring.
Next stop: New York
The bell was made in England and cracked
shortly after being brought to America.

this is the Statue of Liberty.It was a gift from France. It symbolizes
freedom to Americans.
Wow! Why is it green? 
Well it wasn't always green! It use to be brown but turned green
over time.
The Statue of Liberty is sometimes called Lady
Liberty. In one hand she holds a torch and in the
other she holds a tablet.

Quick! Look above Lady Liberty! That's a Bald Eagle.Bald Eagles are the national bird of America.
Why is it the national bird?
It was chosen the national bird because of it's beauty and bravery.
The Bald Eagle is not really a bald at all.
