CHAPTER X
After his father's boat disappears on the open sea, the wooden puppet Pinocchio finds himself drifting alone on a desolate island. Exhausted and heart‑broken, he is rescued by a curious dolphin who offers more than a friendly splash – a promise to search the deep for clues about the missing sailor.
The dolphin, proud of a lineage that once helped a boy reach school across the water, proposes a grand voyage around the world’s oceans. Together they will glide through coral kingdoms, encounter ancient sea‑creatures, and face the mysteries that lie beneath the waves, all while Pinocchio learns what it truly means to be a good son and a student of the sea. Their adventure blends whim‑whale wonder with gentle lessons on bravery, curiosity, and the bonds that can bridge even the most unlikely friendships.

Best known for sending Pinocchio on another fantastical adventure, this Italian writer gave the famous puppet a fresh journey beneath the sea. Her work belongs to the lively wave of late 19th- and early 20th-century stories that grew out of Carlo Collodi’s original world.
