‘The Adventures of Pinocchio’ belongs to the definitive list of Children's Classics and is rightfully catalogued as a required reading for boys and girls. It is an exceptionally imaginative story with a beautiful moral lesson.


This is a very engaging story which tells the adventures of a wooden puppet, whose dream is to become a real boy. Small readers will identify themselves with the hero of the fairy tale — together with him, they will go to school, to a puppet theatre, become victims of a crafty fox and cat, will set off in search of his father Geppetto, will love a good blue haired fairy, will run away to the Land of Toys, will perform in the circus, be swallowed by a shark and happily survive many other exciting adventures. With Pinocchio, little readers will understand that with a good heart and perseverance, our wildest desires can be fulfilled.


This new adaptation of Carlo Collodi's universally loved tale retains its original beauty and lively language, yet is tailored for a contemporary audience. This edition is suitable for young readers themselves or to be read aloud as a bedtime story.

Join Pinocchio on his adventures — it is a journey not to be missed!

Carlo Collodi

Carlo Collodi (1826–1890) was the pen name of Carlo Lorenzini. The Florence native took the name of his mother's native village, where he attended school.

Collodi served in the Tuscan army during the Italian wars of independence and founded a satirical weekly, Il Lampione.

The author of novels, plays, and political sketches, he translated Charles Perrault's fairy tales from the French, and in 1881 his Storia di un burratino (Story of a Puppet) was published in installments in the Giornale per i bambini, appearing two years later in book form as The Adventures of Pinocchio.
