The author of Pinocchio is Carlo Collodi. The setting is not mentioned in the book, but I would guess that Pinocchio takes place in Britain. I would guess because there are lots of parties for lazy people, and thieves are all over to. The author does not tell what the date or time of the story is, but I would guess that it is about the 1800s or 1900s from all the things that is in it.
There are a couple of main characters in this book. Some of them do not show up in every chapter, but they are mentioned often. There is Geppetto who is the man who carves Pinocchio out of a piece of wood. Geppetto is a poor man who lives in a house with one room, and in that room is everything he lives with. He has a kind heart though, and forgives easily. Then there is Pinocchio. Pinocchio is a wooden man called a Marionette, he is lazy, and he never obeys. After a while though, he wants to become a real boy, and does his school. There is the Talking Cricket, the Talking Cricket is an old cricket that lived in Geppetto’s house. After Geppetto gets thrown in prison for a day though, Pinocchio smashed the cricket because he was telling Pinocchio that he was bad. The ghost of the cricket appears often though, and tells Pinocchio what the right thing to do is. Then, last of all comes the Lady With Azure Hair. She is a fairy who Pinocchio adopts as his mother. She is very forgiving, and helps Pinocchio be a better person.
The plot in this book is for Pinocchio to become a real boy. It is hard for him to do this because he has to work hard and be a good boy, and he is a rather disobedient and lazy boy who likes to play rather than work. He gets himself robbed, and once he even becomes a donkey because he does not want to work, and plays all the time. The solution for Pinocchio is to work and be obedient, and he finally completes his mission and becomes a boy at the end of the book.
I think that the moral of this story is that, even when you do not want to, do your school and work. I learned that you should not follow the advice of false friends, because they are trying to lead you into trouble. I also learned that you should be nice to your parents because of all they do for you.
I would recommend this book because it is a fiction book that has a very important moral in it. Pinocchio sounds like lots of people who want to be changed, but they cannot leave their old habits and beliefs behind. It is a very good book, and I chose it because of the role it plays in life.
