LEGO Ninjago Dragons Rising Adventure Atlas: Journey Through the World of Ninjago (without minifigure)
LEGO Ninjago Reference Guides Series
What’s inside...
Published by DK, this richly illustrated atlas is the definitive companion to the LEGO Ninjago: Dragons Rising TV series. Across detailed maps, character profiles, and fold-out spreads, readers explore the newly merged realms, discover every known dragon species, and follow the journeys of new heroes Arin and Sora alongside classic ninja such as Lloyd. Designed as a reference guide rather than a traditional storybook, the atlas walks readers through elemental regions, secret temples, and the high-tech Imperium, explaining key events from Season 1 while offering lore and behind-the-scenes LEGO facts.
