This particular edition of Pinocchio includes everything one could want. The translation is a good rendition and keeps the interest of the English reader without being stilted. The illustrations are beautiful, and the layout is very well done. Pinocchio himself is a whiney obnoxious character, of course, but the adventures are fun. This is a favorite to read to my kids.

Funny book at times and a lot of disgraces for pinocchio, kind of reminds me of "Lazarillo de Tormes" but lighter. 
I really liked the end and you can see through the book how Pinocchio evolved.
I would not give this book to a little kid tho.

This is the cruelest book I've ever read. The capitalist moralizing and violence against children are so over-the-top that I feel like the former is just a flimsy excuse for the latter. It is more whimsical, imaginative, and brutal than its many adaptations.
