The Adventures of Pinocchio was written by Carlo Collodi in Italy in 1883. In so many ways, the story is as relevant now as it was then. It's the story of a boy's need to be accepted and understood by those around him. The fact that Pinocchio is a boy made of wood might be seen as a metaphor for anything that can separate us from others and make children especially feel isolated and alone. Although, the story of Pinocchio falls into the genre of Fairy Tales, it doesn't promote unrealistic expectations and ideals. Pinocchio's final realisation is that he doesn't want to live in a fantasy world, he wants to live in the real
world.
