Publisher's Description of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi (Memoria Press Classics Collection)
Written by Carlo Collodi in 1883, Pinocchio is an adventure-filled fairy tale with an important moral. Will Pinocchio ever learn to do what is right and become a real boy? Collodi’s timeless story teaches valuable lessons of goodness, hard work, and diligence.
A creation of the kindly carpenter Geppetto, the mischievous marionette Pinocchio dreams of becoming a real boy. However, his dishonesty, selfishness, and unrestrained curiosity constantly result in poor decisions and often put him in harm’s way. In the “Field of Miracles,” a sly Fox and a devious Cat trick Pinocchio into planting gold coins in the hopes of growing gold trees. In a land where lazy boys are transformed into donkeys, Pinocchio’s winding path is paved with mistakes and danger. His choices are colored by willfulness and indolence. All the while, every time he tells a lie his nose grows longer and longer, displaying his deception for all the world to see.
Carlo Collodi was an Italian author and journalist. The first chapter of his classic Pinocchio appeared in the Giornale dei bambini (“Children’s Magazine”) in 1881 and was an immediate success.
