Showing results for "Pinocchio" in Growing Up & Facts of Life

Eines Tages findet Tischler Antonio ein Holzscheit, das zu sprechen anfängt. Da ihm die Sache nicht geheuer ist, schenkt er es seinem Freund, dem Holzschnitzer Geppetto. Geppetto ist von dem Holzklotz begeistert und beginnt sogleich mit dem Schnitzen einer Holzpuppe, die er nach getaner Arbeit Pinocchio tauft. Zu Geppettos Erstaunen erwacht die Puppe zum Leben und reißt ihrem Schöpfer aus. Beim Versuch, Pinocchio wieder einzufangen, landet Geppetto sogar im Gefängnis, kommt dann aber wieder frei und findet Pinocchio ausgehungert und reumütig in seinem Haus.

Pinocchio is a wooden puppet who comes to life and has the most astonishing adventure. A naughty, mischievous creature, he is full of good intentions but is greedy, and lets nothing stand in his way. His maker, poor Gepetto, loves him like a son, but Pinocchio just can't stay out of trouble.

Entrò in bottega un vecchietto tutto arzillo, il quale aveva nome Geppetto; ma i ragazzi del vicinato, quando lo volevano far montare su tutte le furie, lo chiamavano col soprannome di Polendina, a motivo della sua parrucca gialla, che somigliava moltissimo alla polendina di granturco.

Given the time and location in which it was written, the original Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi contains many events and episodes which, today, many consider unsuitable for a modern children's audience. The Disney animated version was changed in many ways to reflect this - and so is this adaptation. Chris MacDonnell and Spoken Realms have re-imagined and re-written the more unsuitable sections to reflect contemporary expectations of children's literature. However, it is still truly a children's classic and the story is largely unchanged.
