The LEGO Ideas Book: Unlock Your Imagination
Hand me a bucket of LEGOs and watch my brain freeze. I may be a master builder when it comes to LEGO walls or towers, but anything more complex is not intuitive to me. I know I am not alone.

Nearly 200 Pages of Ideas
Do you suffer from the same malady? Does your experience mirrors ours, in that original ideas are impossible, but it is easy to look at what others have created and expand upon it? Then The LEGO Ideas Book is for you, giving you nearly 200 pages of project ideas, building tips, and reviews of unique LEGO bricks. The LEGO Ideas Book is bursting with over 500 designs from LEGO fans that will inspire both the neophyte and the professional builder.

Medieval Castles, Intergalactic Spaceships...
The LEGO Ideas Book has almost 100 different categories of objects, broken into six major groupings: vehicles, houses and landscaping, outer space, history, adventure, and real world creations. Build a four-piece duck or a sturdy elephant, a frightening dragon or a silly robot. There are also plenty of practical objects that you can make with LEGO bricks, like picture frames or a treasure chest with a secret drawer. The mosaics look especially attractive and fun to build.

A Visual Treasury of Building Ideas
While there are virtually no step-by-step directions, projects are beautifully photographed, many with multiple views to help the child who wants to copy the model. Plus there are plenty of helpful tips from Master Builders and straightforward building ideas to suit all abilities. And because The LEGO Ideas Book also shows you how to simplify details, you don't need to be concerned if you don't have the exact same bricks for most of the projects. However, keep in mind that it may be hard to duplicate a few projects without the specialty bricks called for in some designs.
