Carlo Collodi

Las aventuras de Pinocho es sin duda la obra más conocida del escritor italiano Carlo Collodi (1826-1890), y uno de los libros infantiles más famosos del mundo. Apareció por primera vez en 1881, y dos años más tarde se publicó en forma de libro. El libro relata la historia de Pinocho, un muñeco de madera que va atravesando diferentes pruebas en las que tiene que decidir entre el bien y el mal, y que finalmente se convierte en un niño de carne...

When the gentle woodcarver Geppetto builds a marionette, Pinocchio, to be his son, a fairy brings the toy to life. But Pinocchio is not yet a human boy. He must earn the right by proving that he is brave, truthful, and unselfish. But even with the help of Jiminy, a cricket who the fairy assigns to be his conscience, Pinocchio goes astray. He joins a puppet show instead of going to school, he lies instead of telling the truth, and he travels to Pleasure...

Once upon a time, the dream of a lonely woodcutter is fulfilled when his puppet comes to life. Unfortunately, Pinocchio quickly becomes more of a prankster than a pleasure. He would rather create mischief and play tricks than keep up on his studies. Soon, however, the wooden puppet learns that being a real boy is much more complicated than simply having fun.

A naughty wooden puppet gets into trouble, disobeys his father, forgets his promises, and skips through life looking for fun. Just like a "real boy." Until he learns that to become truly real, he must open his heart and think of others.
