Pinocchio tells the story of a marionette named Pinocchio and his owner Geppetto who has carved him out of a wooden piece. He is characterised by his nose which gets longer whenever he lies. As soon as he learns to walk, he runs away from his home. On the way, he is caught by a Carabinieri who thinks Pinocchio is mistreated by Geppetto and imprisons him. Pinocchio returns to Geppetto s home and interacts with a talking cricket who had warned him of selfishness, lies and hedonism. Will he be able to save Geppetto? Will he stop lying? Will he turn to the path of goodness and truth? These are the questions that have fascinated millions of readers of Pinocchio throughout the world.
