From the minds of LEGO Masters winners Jackson Harvey and Alex Towler comes a book like no other.

A New World Rises explores an imagined future where mini-figures rule the world using human debris to craft intricate civilisations inside discarded objects. With fun and playful text by award-winning children's author Cristy Burne, this is a book for the whole family that will inspire you to grab some LEGO and see where your imagination goes. And best of all, it's particularly appealing for reluctant readers and a great way to get 8-to-12-year-old boys off their screens and in touch with their creativity.

Taking LEGO storytelling and artistry to new heights, and coupled with the pair's focus on creating art sustainably, Alex and Jackson repurposed half a tonne of second-hand bricks, discarded jetskis, pianos, ATMs, TVs, jukeboxes, arcade games, bookshelves and even the humble dumpster to design worlds inspired by Albert Einstein, Hollywood film studios, the Jurassic era, Egyptology and outer space - just to name a few. Scattered throughout the different worlds are hidden minifigs of Alex and Jackson to find as part of their Minifig Spotter's Guide - look closely to find all 13 pairs! Once you've explored these artistic builds, and find yourself inspired to make your own relics, read through Alex and Jackson's how-to tips for world-building, using a combination of LEGO and upcycled items.
