Recommendation: meh 4.4 / 5 from 258 reviews

I was somewhat disappointed with this book. I was hoping there would be more creative ideas for just bricks. For the kids who have a hodge podge of Legos. Most of the stuff in the book my 6 year old feels like he can't do because he doesn't have the "right bricks". I have encouraged him to use his imagination and use other bricks in their place. But I wanted to let others interested know that a lot of the pictures look like something you'd make with bought sets.

Recommendation: no 4 / 5 by Tommy

Overall, it's a good book. It is geared toward younger readers, and being that LEGO is a toy for kids (a fact I need to remind my readers of from time to time), that makes total sense.
