As much as I wanted to like this story, it just wasn't for me. With a bunch of good ratings, I was really surprised.
This was a spin on Pinocchio in which the story was from Geppetto's journey instead of the wooden boy's. It started off well enough. We find the woodcarver already swallowed by the monstrous creature that some refer to as a shark and some as a whale. He tells us his story of how he ended up where he was.
The book started off well enough and with the artwork throughout, I thought I was in for a wonderful journey. Instead, I ended up not liking Geppetto very well and became increasingly bored with this tale. When I finally finished, all I felt was relief.
