Talks about Lego, which emerged from Billund Denmark as one of the most loved toy companies in the world. Lego is still a privately held company(according to me a remarkable achievement till now) There’s some probability I read a different book than all these 5 star reviewers – but the one I read was a confused mess. It read like a series of extended case studies looking for a coherent narrative.

This book is about the history of Lego and how they first became famous and successful, but it mostly is about the business decisions that lead to their near-collapse, and what the company did to turn itself around.

I never played with LEGO, and neither did my children. But hundreds of kids do, judging by the demand for books about LEGO at the library I work in. Inspired by an Australian librarian (and with a donation from a customer) we were able to buy some LEGO kits and pieces and now run LEGO holiday activities at the library - they are really popular. The exhibition consists of a range of stunning 2D and 3D work in a variety of scales, from jewellery to sculpture, and the show includes both wall mounted and plinth based exhibits. I found myself pondering some of the topics that came up in both natural and more structured discussion even days later.
