This is a very interesting book but, in my opinion, it is definitely NOT for the amateur (or young) Lego enthusiast. Most--if not all--of the examples in the book require a variety of Lego bricks and parts--some of which, I am not sure are easily obtainable. So, do note that if you would like to attempt to build what is in the book, then more than likely you WILL need specialty pieces that may or many not be available.I bought this book for a child (my son), hoping that I would be able to guide his creativity beyond the "sets" that are currently on the market. My desire was to give inspiration for him to use his imagination and go outside of the instruction sheets. Unfortunately, after looking through this book, I immediately felt compelled to repackage it for return (without ever showing it to him). The examples were quite nice but not what I would call inspirational for the average Lego fan. None of the pieces seemed random (ex. the perfect looking, color-coordinated green dinosaur). . .and none of the examples showed what it would look like if the average Jo(anna) used what (s)he had on hand after combining several random sets (i.e., multi-colored stegosaurus that is missing half of its back plates and a leg!). So, to avoid the frustration of having to explain to my son why we WOULD NOT be purchasing a 1000+ more pieces just to attempt to build what was in the book. . .or why his dinosaur would NEVER look like the example, I decided to return it and look for another alternative.Anyway, I do think that the book is a great concept (I enjoyed looking at the pictures and thinking about what I would build if I had the opportunity to raid a Lego store). . .

Let your imagination run wild with The LEGO Adventure book: Cars, Castles, Dinosaurs & More! This is a big, impressive book that every Lego lover is going to want to get their hands on. All 200 pages are filled with large, glossy, colorful photographs to inspire and amaze.The first chapter shows you, step by step, how to set up a home base. The LEGO avatar, Megs, says she's calling it the idea lab. Then it's on to the LEGO town. Here Megs meets Craig, the aircraft parts manager. He shows Megs (and the reader) how to build a San Francisco-style cable car, coffee shop, zoo buggy, bridge, two-story house, and garage. The house could be a bakery or store instead--it's all up to you.Once the garage is done, you're ready for hot rods and cool rides. These are impressive vehicles, complete with exposed engines to show off your craftsmanship.Do you prefer flying? You won't be disappointed as Jon demonstrates how to construct the Skywolf, Gryphon, Scarlet Fury, Viper, Skyhammer, and Steel Wind. Jon offers a good building tip: "Make sure that your minifigure can fit into the cockpit before you build too much of your place!"Throughout the book, helpful building tips guide the LEGO builder. For example, in the chapter showing how to build the action figure Counterbalance, the tip says, "Of course, your mecha doesn't have to have two identical arms. How about adding a rocket pod or a power sword instead?"Each chapter is designed by a different avatar, which are representations of the actual LEGO enthusiast from an international community.This book has something for everyone. If you prefer medieval, there's a whole village, complete with hilltop tower, castle, market, woodsman's cottage, and even a stagecoach.
