Description: This is a Grosset & Dunlap hardcover edition of Pinocchio by Collodi with dustjacket. It is undated, but believed to be circa 1930 as there is a gift inscription on the front end page dated 1939. The dust jacket shows wear around edges with pieces missing from the top and bottom of the spine. The hinges of the dust jacket are worn through in spots. It has been placed in a protective archival wrapper. The page edges are top stained, and there is a book plate inside the front cover. Toymaker Gepetto creates a wooden puppet named Pinocchio and wishes on a star that he would be a real boy. A Fairy grants his wish, making Pinocchio come alive. This story has been criticized as it was originally written for its depiction of harsh punishments for disobedience. Despite objections from some readers, the story has a positive takeaway--people can be rewarded for being brave, honest, and loyal, and it's never too late to do the right thing.
