#111: “The Adventures of Pinocchio: Story of a Puppet” by Carlo Collodi

Hi-ho the me-ri-o! Courtney and Emily have no strings to hold them down as they celebrate the 85th anniversary of Walt Disney Animation’s second motion picture, Pinocchio, by comparing the film to Carlo Collodi’s original novel, “The Adventures of Pinocchio: Story of a Puppet.” Collodi’s episodic adventure takes readers to the puppet show, the not so wondrous meadows, Playland, the bottom of sea…pretty much everywhere that is not school as Pinocchio learns to accept the consequences of his actions and tries to become a real boy.  Review Book of the Mouse Club on iTunes and Google Play and send any questions, comments, or suggestions to the hosts at bookofthemouseclub@gmail.com Follow Our Reading Journey On Social Media!
