The young puppet Pinocchio dreams of becoming a real boy. But whenever he tries to prove himself worthy of the transformation, he falls into mischief and laziness. Pinocchio must learn the hard way how to become honest, kind, and—above all—human. One of the most-translated works in children’s literature, Pinocchio is a thrilling story about improving one’s character and learning how to live in an often-harsh world.
