Pinocchio
Description
The story of a wooden puppet, whose nose grows every time he lies, has become famous all over the world. This new edition of the timeless tale will captivate readers of all ages. Pinocchio is a mischievous puppet who struggles to behave himself in a world full of temptation and adventure.
Unlike his famous movie namesake, this Pinocchio is sometimes selfish and cruel - just like some real little boys. As soon as he can walk, he runs away and gets into a series of darkly humorous episodes. He gets conned by a pair of tricksters and gets turned into a donkey, getting swallowed by a giant fish. The story is full of memorable characters and briskly propelled by the captivating logic of a dream. This remarkable fantasy from the nineteenth century remains as fresh and inventive as if it had been written yesterday.
