Hardcover. London, Palazzo Editions, reprint, 2020, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 209 pages. Illustrated in color by Robert Ingpen. The 1926 translation is by Carol Della Chiesa. Award-winning illustrator Robert Ingpen captures the rascally Pinocchio and his extraordinary escapades as never before, breathing new excitement into this enchanting classic. The tale of how the old woodcarver Geppetto made a disobedient puppet boy that could talk, dance and turn somersaults has been a much-loved story since it was first written more than 130 years ago. The Adventures of Pinocchio first appeared in 1881 as a series in a children's newspaper. Since then, readers young and old have delighted in Collodi's fantastic fairy-tale world, in which anything can happen and excitement waits round every corner. Clean copy.
