Summary: Stars in his eyes
... We bought this book as a Christmas gift for our 10-year-old nephew [in combination with Lego Crazy Action Contraptions: A Lego Inventions Book (Klutz)]. His eyes were as big and round as Christmas-tree ornaments as he flipped through the books and saw the myriad wonderful things he could build with his treasured blocks. And, with two huge tubs of Lego pieces already in his possession, we figured he didn't need yet another set of Legos... but perhaps something nifty to build with them all. This fills the bill nicely!

Editorial Reviews — [1] ... Product Description | Discover the LEGO Universe! This unique book brings DK style to the world of LEGO, one of the world's best-selling toys.

It features stunning original photography from LEGO model-making centers, as well as the LEGO Group's archives, parks, and competitions. It also inventively introduces children to some of the greatest cities in the world -- in LEGO form.

[2] ... Review | "This book is not a book about a toy. It is a book about an idea, a set of values, and a long-term commitment to empowering children to use their creativity and build their imagination." So states Lego Group president Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen in his introduction to this fascinating, visually exciting tribute to Lego bricks and the people who play with them. Lego "maniacs" are no mere invention of Lego Group's industrious marketing machine. Enthusiastic fans of the ingeniously designed, colorful plastic

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-02-29 Summary: Completely satisfied ... This was purchased for my 3 grandsons - ages 9, 6 & 4. They are completely into Knights Kingdom "anything". ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-02-06 Summary: Great series of books ... My boys love this series of books. They'll start with legos next year but they already get excited about them due to these books. The stories are classic good vs evil, easy for them to understand and the artwork is attractive and exciting. Most of these books come with stickers or trading cards and that's an added kick. They never dull of hearing these. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-01-15 Summary: Great book for boys! ... My son likes the part when Karzon sets the traps to catch the King, Sir Adric and Sir Kentis. I highly recommend this book for boys that like knight stories. My son is in first grade and can read it himself. ...more

Maximum Lego NXT: Building Robots with Java Brains
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-08-24 Summary: A Great Start ... Although the book sounds otherwise, it is in fact a good start for advanced programmers. A lot of the code does not work right out of the box, but provides a good starting point for advanced programmers to build on. If you are a beginning java programmer, this book probably is not for you because it deals with concepts that are incomplete as described in the book, but an intermediate-to-advanced programmer can take these concepts and modify them as need be and quickly make easy projects more advanced. Overall, I think ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-10-14 Summary: Java Brains - Its a good read for the NXT geek ... I bought this book specifically to get some information on the NXT and some building ideas. The book has easily met my expectations in these areas. There are some great ideas for building robots and a bunch of good info about building techniques and the effective use of sensors. I don't plan on programming in Java (I prefer C), however the ideas and code in the book are easily transferable to any programming language. There are detailed building instructions and excellent examples that I haven't found in any other ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-07-17 Summary: Maximum Lego NXT: Building Robots with Java Brains ... If you are one of those Java guys, hands on, and a mechanical control lover, this is a book you don't want to miss. From programming point of view, some very useful topics are Bluetooth setup (both Window and Linux), Serial Communication setup, Vision detection, and Voice Control. You will be amazed of how you can realize those technologies into controlling an NXT. There are still many other interesting subjects from machanical/control point of view. This includes using GPS receiver(where you can learn NMEA Data format). ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-04-28 Summary: Excellent Book ... Despite the nasty reviews surrounding this book, I strongly dis-agree. I thought this book was extremely helpful. I am a java programmer but my work is in the data integration area. This book really helped me to step out of the box and start programming movement between motors,sensors,etc. I enjoy all of Brian's writings, blogs, books, etc. You won't find a better book about programming NXT bricks with Java. And who expects a 12 year old to pick up this book and understand? It's a book most suitable for experienced ...more

The LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Zoo!: A Kid-Friendly Guide to Building Animals with the NXT Robotics System
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-03-16 Summary: A personal Lego Mindstorms NXT Zoo review ... Hi everyone, I received this book last week Monday. When I bought this book, I was very sceptical about this book because a peacock on wheels on the cover was a little strange. But I also build a Giraffe with a fifth middle leg based on the book from Benjamin Erwin "Creative Projects with Lego Mindstorms (RIS kit)" which seems also unusual at that time. Also the book of Benjamin Erwin is also an excellent book. So this is of no surprise that I bought this book also. My skepticism melted as snow for the sun when I saw ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-06 Summary: Great for kids and adults ... I'm really impressed with this book. The models are solid and easy to construct. The programming is also easy to understand. My daughter and I really enjoyed this book. She gives it a big thumbs up, which is five stars in my book. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-04-17 Summary: An excellent next step after the instructions ... Animals have taken over my house. Every time I turn around something is hopping, walking or skittering across the floor. I blame No Starch Press and the LEGO company; a NXT MindStorms kit and a copy of "The LEGO NXT Mindstorms Zoo" ("Zoo") by Fay Rhodes has my 15 year old daughter (with previously no real interest in robots or programming) building all sorts of infernal machines. The release of the MindStorms NXT has brought forward a plethora of new possibilities and books to inform us of them. No Starch has published ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Whether you're just beginning with your LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT set or are already an expert, you'll have hours of fun with these animal-like models that walk, crawl, hop, and roll! The first part of the book introduces you to the NXT kit and reviews the parts you'll need in order to begin building. Next, you'll learn how to program with the NXT-G programming language, including how to make miniprograms called My Blocks that you can use to build larger programs. Finally, you'll learn how...more
