The LEGO Adventure Book


Synopsis:  Unleash your imagination as you journey through the wide-ranging world of LEGO building with The LEGO Adventure Book. This inspiring tour is filled with bright visuals, step-by-step breakdowns of 25 models, and nearly 200 example models from the world's best builders. Learn to build robots, trains, medieval villages, spaceships, airplanes, and much more. Whether you're brand-new to LEGO or have been building for years, this book is sure to spark your imagination and motivate you to keep creating!

My Review:  Another 5 star, must have book for those that love LEGOs!  The LEGO Adventure Book includes contributions from over a dozen expert LEGO builders, with models like:


  • Flying machines, from vintage propeller planes to futuristic starfighters
  • A medieval village featuring an outdoor market, butcher shop and fortified castle
  • Dinosaur favorites like the Stegosaurus and T. Rex, completed with articulated tail and jaw
  • A modern city full of shops, garages, vehicles, and even cable cars
  • A realistic British locomotive with working brakes
  • A huge selection of hot rods and race cars



The LEGO Adventure Book is designed for fans of all ages and ability levels.  My girls and I loved the chapter on dinosaurs.  We had a fun time rummaging through our huge box of mixed matched LEGOs to find the pieces needed to build a T-Rex - our favorite dino!



My girls also LOVED the chapter, Making New Friends.  They love the LEGO Friends collection and this chapter focused on building "non-LEGO" Friend sets.  The pool is just too cool!  I loved the piano!

Again, another LEGO book, must have!  I recommend The LEGO Adventure Book to anyone who loves to build and play with LEGOs.
