Oh Pinocchio

A brand-new Pinocchio by two masters

‘My hero is undoubtedly Pinocchio. One day I want to portray him myself. The idea has been taking shape in my mind for years. My task will be to reinvent my childhood hero graphically. I’ll make it happen before I turn 65. I’m deadly serious.’ Carll Cneut once said this in an article about storybook heroes, and he has made good his word (well ahead of time).

Imme Dros adapted the classic story as she does so well: with few words, in a language that is poetic yet entirely clear. Together with Carll Cneut, she brilliantly brings Geppetto’s wooden puppet to life. Children of all ages will identify with this Pinocchio.
