Summary
A master carpenter creates a wooden puppet named Pinocchio. Through the course of the story, the puppet begins to act lifelike, develops a mind of his own, and wishes to be a real boy. He even goes to school with real children, but is kidnapped and sold into slavery along with his friend Pippifax, so Pinocchio's creator/father, named Papa Gepetto, sets out looking for him. Pinocchio rescues his friends and himself from the clutches of the evil Stromboli, and rescues his father from the belly of a giant fish. In the end, Pinocchio gets his wish and turns into a real, flesh-and-blood boy.

gollark: You can't, I think, test in a way which could not be faked by a not-good dictator.
gollark: Great!
gollark: The issues of picking an initial dictator, and passing it on to the next person, will run into similar issues to modern democracy: you're optimizing for someone who's convincing and sounds good and not necessarily someone who *is*.
gollark: And you run into the issue of: how do you pass on leadership?
