Celebrate International LEGO Day 2025 and Brick your Book at the Library

In conjunction with Imagination Station we invite you to Celebrate International Lego Day and Brick Your Book at the Library!

Have you ever wondered how your favourite book would look made from Lego? What if Alice had Adventures in Legoland? Is there Room for bricks on the Broom? Would Mowgli find the Bare Necessities in The Jungle Brick? Get the whānau together, use our Lego or yours to recreate a scene or character from your favourite book, and be in to WIN!

Want some inspiration? Check out the entries in last year's Brick your book competition, or one of our many Lego titles in our collection.

International Lego Day is Tuesday 28 January 2025.
