One of the most read books of all time, Carlo Collodi's Pinocchio is a crazy, tragicomic story that will captivate young and old alike with its beloved blend of mischief and magic. This edition of Pinocchio includes the charming illustrations of classic British illustrator Charles Folkard and an afterword by Anna South.

Geppetto, a poor carpenter, creates a puppet from a strange piece of wood that talks and inadvertently brings the stubborn Pinocchio – a walking, talking, wooden boy – into the world. The naughty, selfish puppet ventures out into the world and encounters all sorts of unusual and dangerous characters on his adventures, undergoing a series of mischievous fantastical ordeals – among them being swallowed by a giant whale and turning into a donkey – that will lead him to self-awareness. Along the way, he is helped by a beautiful fairy, a talking cricket, and his beloved father as he learns how to become what he most desires – a real boy.
