Carlo Collodi, écrivain italien, est célèbre pour son œuvre intemporelle qui a enchanté des générations de lecteurs. Son écriture se caractérise par une imagination espiègle et une teinte morale, explorant souvent les thèmes de l'identité, de la maturation et des conséquences des choix. Avec une approche narrative magistrale, Collodi transforme des récits simples en leçons de vie profondément résonnantes qui laissent une impression durable.
Il y avait une fois... " Un roi ! " diront tout de suite mes petits lecteurs. " Non, mes enfants, vous vous êtes trompés. Il g avait une fois un morceau de bois. " Ce n'était pas du bois de luxe, mais un morceau pris dans un vulgaire tas de petit bois, de ceux que, l'hiver, on met dans les poêles et les cheminées pour allumer le feu et réchauffer les appartements. Je ne sais pas comment ça arriva, mais le fait est qu'un beau jour ce morceau de bois se retrouva dans la boutique d'un vieux menuisier...
The young puppet Pinocchio dreams of becoming a real boy. But whenever he tries to prove himself worthy of the transformation, he falls into mischief and laziness. Pinocchio must learn the hard way how to become honest, kind, and--above all--human. One of the most-translated works in children's literature, Pinocchio is a thrilling story about improving one's character and learning how to live in an often-harsh world.
Based on an original story by the author of Pinocchio, Pipi the Pink Monkey has been expanded and translated for the first time by Alessandro Gallenzi and illustrated by Axel Scheffler. Pipì isn't like his four brothers or the other young monkeys living in the forest of Hullabaloo: he has bright-pink fur, a mischievous character and a rebellious streak that lands him into all sorts of scrapes. In this story, an expanded version of Collodi's original tale, we see him lose his tail to an ancient crocodile, end up as a valet to a young master, fall into the hands of flying bandits and become emperor of a tribe of apes. Collodi wrote this story immediately after Pinocchio, and the little monkey's adventures present clear similarities, both in terms of themes and characters, with his more celebrated masterpiece. This rediscovered gem of Italian literature, beautifully illustrated by Axel Scheffler and preserving all of Collodi's trademark wit and linguistic crispness, will delight and enthral a new generation of children.
This classic children's book tells the story of Pinocchio, a mischievous marionette who dreams of becoming a real boy. It is a timeless tale of adventure, friendship, and the importance of honesty and loyalty.
