Once upon a time, there was an old man with yellow hair. People called him Grandpa Hominy.
Grandpa Hominy was a good woodcutter. He made himself a lot of furniture. Grandpa Hominy lived on his own and sometimes felt lonely.
One day, grandpa Cherry gave Grandpa Hominy a piece of wood. "This is a piece of magic wood which can cry and laugh. You can make a puppet from it." he said.
Grandpa Hominy was so happy and he began to carve the wood immediately. When he finished the ears, the ears began to move. Wen he finished the eyes, the eyes began to blink.
Soon, a puppet came into being. The puppet was laughing and jumping. He was a lovely boy with a long nose! Grandpa Hominy loved the puppet very much and he named him Pinocchio.
Pinocchio learned to walk, and he went out, without wearing any clothes. Grandpa Hominy ran after him. People in the street were curious and many of them stopped to see what had happened.
Grandpa Hominy caught up with Pinocchio and was about to take him home. The naughty Pinocchio began to cry and a policeman came. Pinocchio lied to the policemand that Grandpa hominy wasn't kind to him.
The policemand believed Pinocchio and sent Grandpa Hominy to prison. Grandpa Hominy wasn't set free until night. But Pinocchio made no apology. Pinocchio thought it would be fun to go to school, so he came to Grandpa Hominy and begged. "Grandpa, I want to got to school!"
Grandpa Hominy was very happy to hear that. But he didn't have enough money to buy Pinocchio course books, so he sold his coat and trembled with cold.
Pinocchio went to school the day after. But on hsi way, he was distracted by a puppet show. So he went to watch the show. The other puppets were very happy to see pinocchio. They invited him to dance on the stage. The show was a great success.
The theatre boss gave Pinocchio five golden coins in return for his performance. He wanted Pinocchio to buy some clothers for Grandpa Hominy.
