searched for him everywhere but did not find him.
But one evening he saw him at the door. He had become very
dirty and his clothes were torn.
"Where have you been?" asked his father in an angry voice. "I
was taken away by a fairy," replied Pinocchio. But as he said
that, his nose started to grow longer. His father
saw this and came with a big axe and started to
cut it, chop, chop, chop!
But the nose grew and grew and grew. The
cobbler was tired of cutting it.
Just then the
fairy
appeared.
"Pinocchio, if you tell
lies, you nose will
grow longer. You
should always tell the
truth and help your
father in his work."
After saying this, the
fairy disappeared.
| Pinocchio's nose
3 became normal again.
From that day onwards, Pinocchio
did not tell a lie. He helped his
father in his work and soon they
became very rich.
