HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics.

But I am not like other boys! I always tell the truth.

The story of Pinocchio has remained one of the best-loved children's tales for over a century. However, the original 1883 novel about the adventures of the mischievous marionette on his quest to become a real boy began as a sophisticated story for both adults and children. It includes political satire, slapstick humour, and questions about the role of tradition and society.

From the moment Geppetto decides to carve himself a son from a magical piece of wood, the tale lurches from one fantastical episode to another, in one of the most enchanting fables of all time.
