About this listen

 Pinocchio is the best puppet story ever. Listeners will quickly be caught up in Carlo Collodi's impish creation as they are swept along at an action-packed pace. From the day when Geppetto first carves Pinocchio from a piece of wood to the final happy ending - with many exciting and dangerous adventures along the way - Pinocchio will charm and captivate. The story also has a strong moral throughout, which is as suitable for children (and adults!) today as when the original book was written.

This recording has been abridged from a translation of the original text, which was first published in 1883. It remains faithful to the book from which Walt Disney adapted his famous animated version.

Critic Reviews

"A children's classic.... Pinocchio delicately balances fantasy and reality, and therein lies its source of greatness." (Anita Silvey, The Essential Guide to Children's Books and Their Creators)

Exceptional performance! Wonderful characterization. Definitely recommended to fairy tale lovers. Perhaps too dark for kids, though.
