Once upon a time, there was a talking, walking, dancing piece of
wood. His name was Pinocchio, the marionette created from an enchanted
log by Tuscan woodcarver Geppetto.

The miraculous puppet dreams of
being a real boy, but he has a mischievous streak. Pinocchio fights,
kicks, lies, and runs away before Geppetto can teach him the lessons of
life.

Challenged by an escalating series of misadventures,
Pinocchio must learn to be selfless, respectful, and honest in order to
fulfill his wishes and lose his strings. A childhood favorite, Pinocchio endures as a rite of passage and illustrates the difficulties of growing up, staying true to oneself, and being kind to others.
