HarperCollins is proud to present our range of timeless literary classics.But I am not like other boys! I always tell the truth.The story of Pinocchio has remained one of the best-loved childrens 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, and 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.
