I bought this book for my 9 year old grandson. He is thrilled with it. He couldn't wait to get out his old, boring Legos and get started. The Legos box always comes with directions but after you build the same car, rocket or scene several times, they just get dumped in a big box. Now, he is building something new every day. And thinking of other ways to expand. He has the blocks sorted by size, shape, type do he can quickly work on a design. Great book, great ideas, great teaching tool.

Really hard to follow. My 12 year old didn't find it helpful at all.

The LEGO Ideas Book truly inspires any LEGO fan who reads it to jump out of his or her seat and create something new! With over 500 different ideas from LEGO fans like you, this book pretty much covers everything from brick built space crafts to medieval castles of old. The different building techniques and strategies help ones mind to take their building to a whole new dimension. The many different ideas within the pages are useful indeed, but what really gets one going is the sight of all the simply amazing creations inside! Seeing awesome models makes LEGO builders want to create something awesome too, and with the help of this book, you can! Well written by Daniel Lipkowitz, the tips and tricks inside will certainly help any builder to expand his or her building ideas sevenfold!
I purchased this for my son for Christmas. He is 7 years old and a real LEGO fan. It has been his favorite gift this year. It has so many fantastic ideas in it that have sparked his own creative use of his LEGO blocks. I read the reviews on this book and compared it with other similar books and feel that I made the right decision on this book. It is fun for an old grown up like me to look through.
It was given as a gift to my 7 year old great nephew. Glancing through it I felt it may be a little old for him but I wrote in it that "I hope you get many years of enjoyment and ideas from this book." It will be something he can refer to for many many years.

I purchased the Lego Ideas Book at a good value (50% off) as a gift for my 11 year old cousin. When he opened it, he couldn't resist looking at it and it held his attention for quite a while. I think he will enjoy looking at all the possible things that he can imagine and build for a long time. I would definitely recommend this book to Lego Lovers everywhere!

Since our box of Legos is 30+ years old and I didn't realize how much they had changed, this beautiful book of ideas didn't work for us. Since I paid about 1/3 of the regular cost, I had no problem donating it to our library.

Gave this book and Lego to my grandson for Christmas and it was a hit. He now wants me to help him build some of these things. Thank you Daniel and Dorling for writting this book and giving an old grandma an oppotunity to have quality play time with a 9 years old grandson. This is a gift that will continue to give... me time with this special young man in my life.
I was hoping for simpler basic builds for beginners to give my 7 year old nephew a basis for learning. There aren’t any step by step instructions, just a couple of hints how to get there. “Stimulate the mind” mentality. I need more help before my brain can take over! LOL
