"The Adventures of Pinocchio" is a novel for children written by Carlo Collodi, the pseudonym of the Florentine journalist and writer Carlo Lorenzini. The first half originally appeared in installments between 1881 and 1882, published as The Story of a Puppet, and was completed in the children's book released in Florence in February 1883. It tells the accidental experiences—harmful and cruel, yet appealing and full of twists—of a wooden puppet, Pinocchio, carved by Master Geppetto, who considers him his father. More than just a puppet wanting to become a real boy, more than a round, wooden, long-nosed face, more than the protagonist of a "moral" book, Pinocchio is a universal icon and a metaphor for the human condition. The book, which lends itself to multiple interpretations, is a world masterpiece that has inspired hundreds of editions. As a universal icon and metaphor for the human condition, the book is considered a canonical piece of children's literature and has had a significant impact on global culture.

The beloved tale of a wooden puppet who longs to become a real boy is as appealing now as when it was first released in 1940. The beautiful, vintage illustrations in this Little Golden Book retelling will charm children and collectors alike. It makes a great companion to the Platinum Edition DVD being released by Disney in spring 2009!

In this classic Little Golden Book from 1956, The Lone Ranger and Tonto help a young boy find his missing brother--and end up capturing a bunch of bandits! For little cowboys ages 2 to 6.
