Carlo Collodi began writing and translating stories since the XNUMXs, when the latter presented many wonderful stories that children loved.

Around the year 1881, Collodi wrote to a friend of his who worked as an official in one of the newspapers in Rome, to offer him the idea of ​​dedicating the children's page in the newspaper, in order to convey some wonderful stories.

The idea was admired by everyone, so the Italian author began the task of publishing parts of the story of the wooden child Pinocchio.

From the beginning, Pinocchio was distinguished by his bad character. As soon as the work was completed on his feet, the latter kicked his maker, Mr. Geppetto.

After learning to walk, Pinocchio fled from his father's house, Geppetto, towards the city, and there the wooden doll was arrested by the police, who did not hesitate for a moment to open an investigation about him.

Subsequently, the police arrested Mr. Geppetto after accusing him of mistreating his son Pinocchio, and the old carpenter found himself in prison.

Returning to his father's house, Pinocchio kills the talking cockerel by crushing it with a hammer.

With this movement, Pinocchio killed his conscience, as the speaking cockroach, who had lived in the house for more than 100 years, represented the voice of goodness and wisdom.

However, Pinocchio once fell into a deep sleep near the stove, and his feet burned, and with his father Geppetto out of prison, the wooden doll got a new pair of legs, but he continued his series of bad deeds such as stealing, lying, and escaping from school, and because of that the wooden boy was imprisoned , beating, and starvation before he was finally hanged at the seventeenth part on a tree stump.

The story of Pinocchio was very popular with children, and the editor and the newspaper's official was not satisfied with the unhappy ending, and then asked Carlo Geppetto to change the ending and add other parts to it and think of a happy ending before putting all the parts into one book.

While the Italian author did not hesitate to add more than ten other parts to the story, in which Pinocchio escaped death on the gallows after the intervention of a nymph in order to save him.

The following parts saw the decline of the role of the father, Geppetto, in favor of the nymph who became the mother.

In the rest of the story, Pinocchio's behavior gradually improved, and he learned a number of qualities, including honesty, loyalty, and helping others. Therefore, the nymph rewarded him and gave him the body of a real human being.
