Author's chronology

Into the book
“I can’t believe you have such a picky palate with such a small mouth, you little punk.
No! In this world, you have to develop good habits from a young age and learn to enjoy everything, because you never know what might happen to you.
“There are so many cases like that!”
--- p.39

“Today, I’m going to go listen to the sound of the flute.
I'm going to school tomorrow.
“There’s always time to go to school!” the troublemaker finally said with a shrug.
After saying this, he ran like the wind down the road.

--- p.48

“Do you think you, a puppet only about a meter tall, have the strength to carry me on your back and swim?”
"You'll know when you see it! After all, if we're destined to die, at least knowing we can die embracing each other is a great comfort."
--- p.234

Publisher's Review
A fantastic masterpiece novel with a light writing style and straightforward lessons.

Originally intended for adults, this book was later transformed into a fairy tale. Its light-hearted style and the lessons the author directly addresses stand out.
Pinocchio's actions, following his pure heart and instincts, represent the way we live without responsibility and obligation, just like our childhood.
However, the way we realize our mistakes and become better through adventures and trials signifies our growth into adults who can control their instincts and take responsibility and duty through the lessons we learn through the trials and errors of life as we grow up.


This book, which contains the story of Pinocchio being punished when he causes trouble, lies, and gives in to temptation and lives a selfish life, but being blessed to become a human being and no longer a puppet when he realizes his mistakes and begins to live a good life, became a bestseller and enjoyed immense popularity as soon as it was published, and was introduced and translated into many countries as a representative work of children's literature.
It is currently translated and published in 260 languages ​​by 187 publishers.


As is well known to many, Walt Disney animated this story, which he proudly called "the greatest work I ever created" throughout his life.
Director Steven Spielberg was also inspired by this story to make the film [AI] in 2001.
Let's meet the surprising adventures of Pinocchio, which has the virtues of both morality and fun enough to be chosen by masters, with the original first edition cover design of The Story.
