Lego City: Stop That Train. Ace Landers. 2018. Scholastic. 24 pages. [Source: Review copy]
First sentence: One day a young man rushes through LEGO City to catch his train.
Premise/plot: Will the young man catch his train? If he misses it what will he do? Where is he going anyway?
My thoughts: The young man DOES miss his train. It would be a VERY short book if he didn't. In fact, if something could go wrong, it does. That's just how some days go, right?
This one isn't great literature. But. For little LEGO lovers I do think it will be an enjoyable read. It's a paperback book that comes with a small poster. This is the kind of book that is often available at school book fairs and in book catalogs. I do think those programs are good overall.
It is the young man's birthday. The book ends with him arriving at a surprise birthday party. This book might make a great inexpensive party gift.
