3. Lego Book of Everything
The LEGO® encyclopedia, basically! All the world’s knowledge – with mini-figures. Every home needs a factual reference book where you can look up loads of cool info. (Great for homework and projects.) Problem: it’s usually a massive, serious thing where laughs are a total no-no. But that’s not how you do things, right? And it’s not how the LEGO® experts do things either, which is why this fact book is so awesome. Pretty much every topic under the sun – plus a LEGO® scene on every spread, with LEGO® pictures, minif-igures jokes and mini stories. Seriously: why buy any other reference book? Mini-figures! Massive facts!

She has masterfully created a moving and insightful story about the power of family and friendship, and how it gives us the courage to do what we never thought possible.
At the time of writing this, Ghosts has been the #1 NY Times bestselling graphic novel for the last 5 weeks since it’s release.
