Pinocchio

　　To be a real boy A– that is the heartA’s desire of Pinocchio, a little wooden puppet carved by the old carpenter Geppetto out of a special piece of wood. But the wooden puppet is naughty, mischievous and bold, and has many adventures and faces many challenges before he can become a good little boy at last. This superb new translation by award-winning translator Emma Rose is matched by Sara FanelliA’s playful illustrations in this witty version of Carlo CollodiA’s classic story.

Carlo Collodi

　　Carlo Collodi (1826A–90) is the pen-name of Carlo Lorenzini who was born in Florence. The son of a cook and a servant, he began his writing career as a journalist before turning to childrenA’s stories. Pinocchio was a huge success when it was first published and, with its strong sense of morality tempered by exuberant humour and spirit, is still one today.
