And the phrase, "Touch magic, pass it on" shows up in the oddest places. After five years out of print, the book in an expanded and revised edition has been reissued by the folklore publisher August House.

L'omino anticipato, "Ossia la storia di tutti quei ragazzi che vogliono parere uomini prima del tempo", è il primo dei racconti pubblicata da Collodi nella raccolta "Storie Allegre".
