<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The original, unabridged <i>Pinocchio</i> in a beautifully illustrated hardcover edition. <p/>Carlo Collodi's 1883 story is an astonishing work of fantasy, even richer and more wildly imaginative than the famous film that Disney made of it. The Everyman's edition--the only one in hardcover--brings back the color-illustrated translation of 1916 that captures the vivid inventiveness of Collodi's original. Here is the endearing wooden puppet, always dreaming of becoming a boy and always tumbling into trouble: kidnapped, robbed by a cat and a fox, turned into a donkey, escaping from an enormous smoking serpent and a green-skinned ogre, rescuing his father from the belly of a mile-long fish, haunted by the ghost of a talking cricket, watched over by a fairy with turquoise hair, and, time and again, betrayed by his lie-sensitive nose.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Carlo Collodi (Carlo Lorenzini, 1826-90) was a journalist from Florence who took part in Italy's struggle for independence and died too soon to witness the international success of his children's book.
