Publisher's Description of Build It! Things That Float: Make Supercool Models with Your Favorite LEGO Parts
- Specifically targeted to children ages 5 and up, not to adults or hobbyists.
- LEGO kits come with instructions for building just a few models. The Build It! series supplements the fun with hundreds of new ideas.
- Easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions take the guess work out of building.
- The Build It! series feature the most common parts found in LEGO sets, so that kids who already have lots of LEGO parts at home can still use the books.
- Gender neutral (much of the competition seems targeted to boys).
- "Dioramas" evoke the child's imagination by creating an imaginary scene in which their LEGO models can exist/interact.
- Kids can make many different models from one kit--they don't need to take apart what they created before going onto the next model in the diorama.
