The LEGO Book Reviews
The Brothers Brick
“It is impossible to cover everything A-Z on LEGO within any single book, but if you had to just get one book to enjoy the 60-year lifespan from cover to cover in an overview, this would be one that you’d want to go for. It would be especially useful if you’re new to the LEGO... More scene or if you’re just coming back from a hiatus from what LEGO fans call the ‘dark ages’ and need a quick re-introduction.”
Bricksfanz
“2018 is a milestone year for the LEGO Group, the LEGO® brick celebrates its 60th anniversary and the much-loved minifigure reaches its 40th anniversary. To coincide with these special celebrations, DK Books have released an updated version of The LEGO Book. Featuring over 20... More additional pages, the book charts the entire history of the LEGO Group from wooden toys right through to the opening of the LEGO House.”
