Official descriptions[]

Scholastic[]

Protect this book from dark forces. If it falls into the wrong hands, the knowledge contained within could put all of time and space in danger.

LEGO® Ninjago: Book of Spinjitzu contains Master Wu's wise lessons in the wonders of Ninjago, giving readers the power to master Spinjitzu and unlock the secrets of this mysterious philosophy. Master Wu has recorded the lessons his father, the First Spinjitzu Master, taught him as a boy and has added to them throughout his life.

Now, Master Wu is sharing all that he has learnt, in the hope that those with potential will become Ninjago's great champions and continue to practice the art of Spinjitzu.

Extended: From Master Wu:

My father, the First Spinjitzu Master, taught me the ways of Spinjitzu and the wonders of Ninjago. Since I was a boy I have recorded these lessons so that I may teach others. Parts of this book are from journals I kept as a child and young man (yes, I was young once!) and others have been written in as I have learned them. I have also commented on the pages whilst reading this book later on in life . . . To be in possession of The Book of Spinjitzu is to have great responsibility. The information it contains is to be used wisely, and only for good. It is my hope that the reader will let the power of Spinjitzu unlock the true potential within them and become one of Ninjago's great champions.

This stunning guidebook is filled with never-before seen illustrations. It's an informative and funny look at life as a ninja, as told by the one and only Master Wu.[2]

  • The contents of this book are canonical to the story of the TV show.[3] Despite this, the part about Garmadon and Forbidden Spinjitzu is different from what's shown in Season 11.
  • By Spring 2019, the book had sold in 17 countries.[4]
  • The USA version uses the original cover.
  • In Chinese version the book called 忍者之书(Book of Ninja),not Spinjitzu, and has an extra end page writing the introduction of Scholastic “保护好这本书,别让黑暗势力把它夺走。一旦这本书落入坏人手里,所有的时空都会陷于危险之中。(Protect this book from dark forces. If it falls into the wrong hands, the knowledge contained within could put all of time and space in danger.)”

Continuity[]

  • A family tree of Lloyd's family with a silhouetted image of a woman next to the image of the First Spinjitzu Master is shown in this book. The image is silhouetted because Wu does not actually know if he and Garmadon have a mother or not.[8]
  • It makes an appearance in Tales from the Monastery of Spinjitzu as Wu's diary.
  • According to the book, all new martial arts in Ninjago can be traced back to Spinjitzu.
  • Forbidden Spinjitzu is mentioned for the first time.
  • There are red Ninjargon letters on almost every page that spell out the message, "I will return in time help me remember Spinjitzu."
  • According to the book, the Ancient Library of Domu is in the Holy City of Domu, and Wu and Garmadon traveled there in their younger years.
  • The books Wu has on his reading list are:
  • Lloyd on the cover of the book is in his Spinjitzu Masters gi, although this suit was released in 2018, not 2017.
  • The book contains information on Skybound despite being written by Wu, who did not remember the events of the season after they were undone. According to Tommy Andreasen, it's possible Jay and Nya told Wu about the events.[9]
  • This book uses an image of Jay in pajamas that is extremely similar to the image of Kai in pajamas from Card 54 - Panic Stations.
