| Summary |
"Pinocchion seikkailut: Kertomus marioneteista" by Carlo Collodi is a classic children's novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative tells the whimsical adventures of Pinocchio, a wooden puppet carved by Geppetto, who dreams of becoming a real boy and experiencing the world beyond his creator's workshop. The story explores themes of disobedience, growth, and the consequences of one's actions as Pinocchio embarks on a series of mischief and moral lessons. The opening of this tale introduces us to Master Cherry, the woodcarver, who finds a peculiar piece of wood that laughs and cries like a child. Intrigued, he intends to fashion it into a chair leg but is interrupted by the wood's strange voice. Soon after, Master Cherry gifts the piece of wood to Geppetto, who plans to carve a magical puppet that can dance and perform tricks. As Geppetto begins to carve, the wood begins to exhibit signs of life, setting the stage for the mischievous and unpredictable adventures that Pinocchio will face as he interacts with various characters and navigates his journey toward becoming a real boy.
