Publisher's Summary
The perfect gift for all ages, Pinocchio as you’ve never seen him before: telling his own story through the master storyteller and award-winning author of WAR HORSE.
“Now – there’s no point in pretending here – I was, and still am deep down, a puppet. Everyone knows Pinocchio is a puppet. I reckon I must be just about the most famous puppet the world has ever known. But the truth is I’m not just a puppet, I’m more than just bits of wood and string. I’m me. So I thought it was about time that I, Pinocchio, told you my story…”
So begins this stunningly beautiful interpretation of the classic story. Michael Morpurgo channels Pinocchio’s words to tell the famous puppet’s story in his own inimitable, cheeky and always funny way.
What the critics say
"This classic puppet story has tended to be a little, well, wooden in the telling, but Morpurgo has made it dance." The Times
"A charming read, even for those who think they already know the story of Pinocchio inside out." Evening Echo
“A beautiful reworking of the classic story." EDP Weekend
