This tale of how the old woodcarver Geppetto made a puppet boy from an unusual piece of wood, who could talk, dance and turn somersaults has been a much-loved story since it was first written more than 130 years ago. The irrepressible Pinocchio ignores the advice of his kindly father and sets off into the world for some extraordinary adventures.
