3. Geppetto is given a piece of wood that talks
and weeps like a child. He carves it into a
marionette called Pinocchio. Pinocchio kicks
Geppetto and runs away. He is caught by a
policeman who sets him free but throws
Geppetto into jail. Alone in Geppetto's house,
Pinocchio is advised by a Cricket to take heed
of his father's wisdom, otherwise he will be
sorry. Pinocchio goes to strike the Cricket and
kills him. Hungry and miserable, Pinocchio puts
his feet up by the fire to warm them. He
awakes at Geppetto's return but finds his
wooden feet have burned away. Geppetto
makes new feet for Pinocchio and gives him
pears to eat. He clothes Pinocchio and sells his
own coat to buy Pinocchio an A-B-C book for
school.

8. On his way to school, Pinocchio hears music
and follows it to a marionette theater. He sells
his A-B-C book to buy his entrance to the
theater, and the theater director gives him five
gold coins to give to his father. Later Pinocchio
meets a fox and a cat dressed as assassins who
attempt to steal his money. Pinocchio hides the
coins in his mouth, so they hang him from an
oak tree and leave him to die. A fairy saves him,
but when asked about the gold coins Pinocchio
lies and says he has lost them. The more lies he
tells the longer his nose grows. The fairy scolds
him, saying that telling lies is the worst thing a
boy can do.

wish. The following morning he wakes up to

homes and lives are filled with happiness.
