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.
