Synopsis
Exciting tale about the naughty puppet that turns into a loving and obedient little boy after a series of harrowing experiences. 30 new illustrations. Abridged., Like many little boys, Pinocchio likes to dabble in mischief, disobey his parents, and shirk his studies and chores. Like many ordinary boys, Pinocchio does what he pleases, with scant regard for the consequences. But the star of this tale isn't just any little boy. And he's certainly not ordinary. In fact, he's not a boy at all. With a head made of wood and his body carved from an enchanted tree limb, Pinocchio is a puppet. And a naughty one at that! Author Carlo Collodi and illustrator Roberto Innocenti treat readers to a wildly imaginative ride in this delightful story of an egoistic wooden puppet whose bad behavior leads him from one misfortune to another. In the end, lured by the promise of becoming a "real" boy should he change his wicked ways, Pinocchio tries to make amends. But will his good deeds come too late? Carlo Collodi is the pseudonym of Carlo Lorenzini (18261890), an accomplished Italian journalist whose translations of French fairy tales in the late 1870s earned such praise that he was encouraged to write his own. "Le Avventure di Pinocchio" ("The Adventures of Pinocchio"), his most famous and beloved work, debuted in 1881 and is today considered a children's classic. Italian Roberto Innocenti taught himself the craft of illustration as a young man and has since become one of the world's most recognizable children's book illustrators. His work in such acclaimed picture books as "Rose Blanche," "Nutcracker," "A Christmas Carol," "The Last Resort," and "Erika's Story" has garnered wide critical acclaim and such honors as the Bratislava Golden Apple Award and a 2004 nomination for the Hans Christian Andersen Award., Readers are treated to a wildly imaginative ride in this delightful story of an egoistic wooden puppet whose bad behavior leads from one misfortune to another. Collodi's classic debuted in 1881., Readers are in for a wildly imaginative, gorgeously illustrated ride in this classic story of a misbehaving wooden puppet whose rebellious ways lead him into all sorts of adventures., Age range 8+ Like many little boys, Pinocchio likes to dabble in mischief, disobey his parents, and shirk his studies and chores. Like many ordinary boys, Pinocchio does what he pleases, with scant regard for the consequences. But the star of this tale isn't just any little boy. And he's certainly not ordinary.

This is NOT the Disney version of this story!
When I was a child my Mother made for my sister and me quilts based on the Pinocchio story. I had the quilt on display last year when a couple of friends asked to look at it more carefully. Even though I had had the quilt for decades once I looked at it with the "new eyes" of my friends we could not connect all of the panels to the Disney story with which we were all familiar. SO, I went to eBay and found this treasure. I read it aloud with my husband and we paused to gaze at the amazing Roberto Innocenti illustrations as we absorbed the story. The illustrations alone make the book worth buying. I liked it so much that I bought another copy for my sister. You will be very surprised at the cricket, I think, and if you plan to read this to children it is suggested you first read it in its entirety to judge whether it is appropriate for young ears. There are many instances of cruelty in the story but we all know how it ends so maybe that's OK after all.Read full review
