I visited many times the beautiful web site pinocchioamarcord.it which addresses the issue of the childhood through those who never had a childhood. The title of Collodi's book " Adventures of Pinocchio". should be changed into the title " The Mis-adventures of Pinocchio".Pinocchio is always suffering: he burned his legs, he went to jail because he wos stolen and honest, he was almost been fried as a fish, he was treated as a dog, he was hang in a tree, he was eaten by a shark. He represents all the sufferin children from all religions: It is perhaps because of these misfortunes that Pinocchio is very popular even in the third millennium: there are to many children who suffer in the third millennium in all the existing religions.
