Description - Meet Me By The Steelmen by Theresa Tomlinson
Jenny's younger brother, Stevie, is fascinated by the giant bronze statue of three steelworkers that stands in the Meadowhall shopping mall, on the site of an old Sheffield steelworks. Stevie's convinced that the statues move and talk, but Jenny doesn't believe him. Is it just the fanciful imagination of a young boy, or is there more to the iconic statues than meets the eye?
