Suitable Class Level: Materna – 1st - 2nd ElementaryPinocchio is Mr. Geppetto’s puppet. It is his biggest wish for Pinocchio to become a real boy. One night, the Blue Fairy visits Pinocchio and gives him life by using her magic! Pinocchio can walk, talk and go to school, but he is still not a real boy! When the Blue Fairy gave him life, she also used her magic so that Pinocchio couldn’t lie! If Pinocchio told a lie, his nose would grow and grow and grow until he told the truth! On his way to school he meets a nasty, old puppet master. Pinocchio must try and escape if he ever wants to be a real boy! For Pinocchio, it’s a dream and struggle he never thought he’d have.
