Gr 1-5-A professional LEGOr builder, Kenney has created an entire city complete with a model Chrysler Building. While the structures are detailed and impressive, the directions for re-creating them are limited, and there are no supply lists. Students will likely be fascinated with the details, but the text is simplistic and the number of LEGOs needed to create even one building is staggering. An extra purchase where the author's other books are popular or the LEGO fad is still in full swing.-Jasmine L. Precopio, Fox Chapel Area School District, Pittsburgh, PA (c) Copyright 2011.
