Pinocchio: is a talking marionette carved out of wood by his master Geppetto, who always wanted him to be real boy. He is very mischievous, always getting into trouble and sometimes telling lies. But every time he tells a lie his nose grows longer. At the end of his adventures he has forty pennies which he has saved to go into town and buy a new suit. Pinocchio arrives back at Geppetto’s cottage having given the pennies to a snail! Geppetto is quite poorly, PINOCCHIO enters carrying an empty bag.
