Carlo Collodi

An introduction by Guillermo del Toro, director of the Academy Award-winning Netflix original movie "It took one look at Gris' design for me to be convinced that... this was 'the' Pinocchio."--Guillermo del Toro This edition has the full text of the original Pinocchio with a mixture of full-page and spot illustrations in black and white integrated in the text, in pen-and-ink style. The ink is sepia brown. Once there was a lonely woodcutter named Geppetto-who dreamed of having a boy of his own. So one day he carved a boy out of wood and named him Pinocchio. When the puppet comes to life, it's Geppetto's dream come true. Except Pinocchio turns out to be not such a nice boy after all. Pinocchio enjoys nothing better than creating mischief and playing mean tricks. As he discovers, being bad is much more fun than being good. For a while, anyway. Happily for Pinocchio, he will learn that there is much more to being a real boy than having fun. A magical tale that has entertained children of all ages for more than a hundred years, this lavishly and gorgeously illustrated new edition is the perfect introduction of a timeless classic to a new generation of readers. And that's no lie

Italian novelist Carlo Collodi created The Adventures of Pinocchio, often known as Pinocchio, while living in Pescia. It tells the story of the mischievous exploits of Geppetto, a destitute woodcarver, and his son Pinocchio, an animated puppet. A carpenter in Tuscany, Italy, discovers a slab of wood that he intends to turn into a table leg. He offers it to Geppetto, a poor neighbor who wants to become a puppeteer in order to support himself. When Pinocchio tries to cook an egg because he is hungry, a bird hatches out of it, leaving him without food. The Fox and Cat, who are robbing Pinocchio while masquerading as robbers, catch him. When the Cat's paw gets bit off, the puppet hides the money in his mouth and flees. One doctor claims Pinocchio is alive, the other believes he is dead, after the Fairy has saved him. When the Cat and the Fox first see Pinocchio, they inform him of the Cat's missing paw. In order to place his wealth in the Field of Miracles, the puppet consents to accompany them. A gorilla court sentences Pinocchio to four months in jail for stupidity. When Pinocchio tries to swim to his father, he washes up on the shore. In order to go to the closest island, known as the Island of Busy Bees, Pinocchio accepts a ride from a dolphin. In gratitude for saving him from The Green Fisherman, the puppet escapes from a drowning Mastiff by the name of Alidoro.

The mischief and magic of Pinocchio and his riotous friends and foes brought to life in this gorgeous pop-up book. Six stunning pop-up scenes. Pull the tabs for extra fun.

The story of a naughty wooden puppet who has a penchant for lying and dreams of becoming a real boy, The Adventures of Pinocchio has entered our collective imagination and fascinated generations of young and adult readers since its first publication in 1883. Part fable, part coming-of-age novel, part cautionary tale, Pinocchio’s rollicking exploits through an unforgiving and often incomprehensible world – populated by unforgettable characters such as the Talking Cricket, Candlewick, Mangiafuoco and the Fairy with Turquoise Hair – have had a profound impact on our culture and attained universal significance as a mirror of the human condition. Here presented in a brand-new and lively translation by Stephen Parkin and illustrated beautifully by Peter Bailey, this edition of The Adventures of Pinocchio brings extra sparkle to one of the greatest and most celebrated works of children’s literature.

La colecci n Grandes Cl sicos ofrece esta preciosa edici n de Las aventuras de Pinocho, una de las obras m s conocidas y menos le das de la cultura popular. NETFLIX y DISNEY+ estrenan en 2022 sendas pel culas basadas en el cl sico de Collodi, una dirigida por Guillermo del Toro, otra protagonizada por Tom Hanks. «Las mentiras, hijo m o, se reconocen enseguida porque las hay de dos clases: est n las mentiras de piernas cortas y las mentiras de nariz larga. Aunque se trata de una de las historias m s c lebres del mundo, Las aventuras de Pinocho es al mismo tiempo una obra en gran medida desconocida. Las aventuras de un trozo de madera parlante no son aqu un cuento moralizante ni sentimental, sino un relato profundamente subversivo sobre la infancia perdida, transido de crueldad, magia y s tira, en el que se entreveran la picaresca, el teatro callejero y los cuentos de hadas de un modo que anticipa el surrealismo e incluso el realismo m gico. Jack Zipes, eminente estudioso de la narrativa fant stica popular, firma la introducci n que abre el presente volumen. La traducci n al castellano es fruto del laborioso trabajo de Miquel Izquierdo, que dota a este cl sico insoslayable de una actualidad palpitante. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Great Classics collection offers this beautiful edition of The Adventures of Pinocchio, one of the best known and least read works of popular culture. NETFLIX and DISNEY+ bring two versions of this classic in 2022, one directed by Guillermo del Toro, the other one with Tom Hank as Geppeto. "Lies, my son, are immediately recognizable because there are just two kinds of them: short-legged lies, and long-nosed lies." One of the most famous stories in the world, The Adventures of Pinocchio is also a largely unknown work. The adventures of this wooden puppet are not a moralizing, sentimental tale, but a deeply subversive, cruelty-filled, satirical and magical story about lost childhood. In it, picaresque, street theater, and fairy tales blend in a way that anticipates surrealism and even magical realism. Jack Zipes, an eminent scholar specialized in popular fantastic narrative, writes the introduction to this volume. The translation into Spanish is the result of the laborious work of Miquel Izquierdo, who gives this classic a pulsating relevance.

Not everyone knows that Pinocchio started life as a serial. Collodi's masterpiece was in fact conceived as a way of attracting readers to one of the first children's periodicals in Italy: the Giornale per i Bambini. This book contains the complete text of the first version of the story with the original graphics, including the very first drawings of the most famous marionette in the world by the illustrator Ugo Fleres. "We are proud to offer readers the extraordinary opportunity to rediscover the original work: not only the complete text as first published but also the original graphic form, with its unsophisticated illustrations: beginning with the episode of 16 February 1882, the title Le avventure di Pinocchio appears together with the absolute first graphic representations of Pinocchio... A truly special occasion for discovering how, a century ago, Italian children read the story of that marionette destined with time to become one of the most famous characters in all of children's literature." - Fondazione Nazionale Carlo Collodi 1st facsimile edition: December 2002 2nd edition: April 2021

"Wer kennt nicht Pinocchio, Carlo Collodis ber hmten und bezaubernden Jungen aus Holz? Zu dumm, dass die Nase bei jeder L ge etwas l nger wird... Generationen von Kindern sind mit dem M rchen aufgewachsen, das heute zu den meisterz hlten der Weltliteratur geh rt." Redaktion Gr ls-Verlag (Edition Werke der Weltliteratur)

A fresh new translation of Collodi's cherished classic of childhood adventureCarved from a piece of magical wood by the old carpenter Geppetto, the puppet Pinocchio comes to life and is almost immediately cast into a series of extraordinary misadventures. Featuring mischievous animals, a wise cricket and, of course, a nose that grows, The Adventurous of Pinocchio is one of the world's most beloved fairy tales. This sparkling new translation by John Hooper and Anna Kraczyna captures the rascally spirit that makes the playful and easily distracted Pinocchio an icon of children's literature, while also revealing the novel's quiet message about the dangers of social inequality and the duty of kindness humans owe one another.
