The LEGO Book, Expanded and Fully Revised Reviews
The Brothers Brick
“This book is a quality hardcover of 255 pages. There is no exclusive minifig offered with this book so no cardboard spacer taking up space between the covers. The quality is high and the book is loaded with gorgeous pictures. It is a book of LEGO eye-candy. Overall, it is a... More nice looking book with minimal information. If you want a pretty-looking, basic overview of LEGO, including its history and impact around the world, then you will like this book.”
“The book promises to be essential reading for Lego fans, even those who have the earlier first edition by Daniel Lipkowitz, as it contains an extra 56 new pages as well as updated information on the Lego Group and their various interests. The first edition came out in 2009,... More to rave reviews. While DK had infact released an earlier title called “The Lego Book” this 2009 edition was completely rewritten and contained so many changes that it was considered the “first” relaunched edition.”

About Dorling Kindersley
Dorling Kindersley, known as DK, publishes the official LEGO reference and idea books, and the run here starts with The Ultimate LEGO Book in 1999. Many come with a minifigure, often one not sold anywhere else, and for some collectors the figure is the reason to buy the book. The Visual Dictionaries and Character Encyclopedias are the best known of these, and the popular ones are updated every few years with a new edition and a new figure.
