I bought this book for my son (6 years old) because he got the blue cargo train Lego kit for Christmas. The problem is that the story takes place on the white Lego passenger train! The cargo train isn't in the story at all! The story itself is fine. I just wish they'd had the right train on the cover!
My 7 year old Lego loving son adores the Lego City series of books. Now that he can read, he'll often read this series to his sister. We picked this up in a Scholastic book fair and he just thinks it is super funny. He doesn't get any of the references (Mr. Clue = Sherlock Holmes, Marilyn Money = Marilyn Monroe, etc) but he doesn't care. He just thinks things like the cow's milk being squirted at Mr. Clue are the bees' knees. He laughs and laughs as does his sister.It's got great graphics and I liked reading it to my children too. As a fair warning, it's also an advertisement for a series of Lego Minifigures that is no longer available. Consider whether your children will beg for the minifigs before buying!!
Cute but way too juvenile to have it listed for an eight year old. The shipping cost more than the book itself which was okay with me if the book was better itself. I'm sure it will be a one-time read and then into the yard sale box.
This is not what I expected. Once again, I have purchased a children's book title for Kindle only to be disappointed in the formating. Something needs to be done about how these books are formatted. I cannot view this book on my iPad Kindle app as a single page. It will only view two pages at a time and then it's so small we can barely read it. I bought this for my son who is learning to read. This is no fun at all and I am very disappointed that the formatting is not set up to view this properly. Unless I am missing something? I tried going into my Kindle settings, etc. and cannot find any way to change it to view one page at a time, which would make the page larger.So, I just looked at it again and it's actually showing FOUR pages at a time, with no apparent way to adjust the setting.
Great book! I bought this for my grandson and he absolutely loved it! Perfect gift for any Lego fan.
The images are too tiny barely my son can read it in the kindle app for ipad
Lego enthusiast grandson has had a ball with these books.
My son loves the lego books. This was another fun one!
