Both books were published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers and promote the use and benefits of using LEGO® Bricks.
Thera-Build® with LEGO® is based on the book by Alyson Thomsen. It focuses on working therapeutically with all children, and is particularly helpful for young people with internalising conditions such as anxiety or attachment disorder. Through purposeful play with LEGO® bricks, Thera-Build® aims to reduce stress, boost confidence and self-esteem and support children to self-regulate, by providing individualised high-quality relational building experiences that help children to communicate difficult emotions and to positively connect with others.

LEGO®-Based Therapy is based on the book by Daniel LeGoff. It focuses on building social competence for children with autism and related conditions, with an explicit set of Club Rules and a ‘Level System’ in which children work together in teams, with specific roles to build LEGO® models and develop their communication skills.
