At last fans of the LEGO BOOST robot building kit have the learning resource they've been
missing! Enter The LEGO BOOST Activity Book: a full-color guide that will help readers learn
how to build and code LEGO creations that move explore their environment grab and lift
objects and more. The LEGO BOOST kit lets younger builders create fun multifunctional robots
by combining bricks with code but it doesn't come with a manual. With the help of this
