The Adventures of Pinocchio (/pɪˈnoʊki.oʊ/ pi-NOH-kee-oh; Italian: Le avventure di Pinocchio [le avːenˈtuːre d̪i piˈnɔkːjo]) (commonly shortened to Pinocchio) is a novel for children by Italian author Carlo Collodi, written in Pescia. It is about the mischievous adventures of an animated marionette named Pinocchio and his father, a poor woodcarver named Geppetto.

It was originally published in a serial form as The Story of a Puppet (Italian: La storia di un burattino) in the Giornale per i bambini, one of the earliest Italian weekly magazines for children, starting from 7 July 1881. The story stopped after nearly 4 months and 8 episodes at Chapter 15, but by popular demand from readers, the episodes were resumed on 16 February 1882.[1] In February 1883, the story was published in a single book. Since then, the spread of Pinocchio on the main markets for children's books of the time has been continuous and uninterrupted, and it was met with enthusiastic reviews worldwide.

A universal icon and a metaphor of the human condition, the book is considered a canonical piece of children's literature and has had great impact on world culture.

# data[].attributes.body
Seven years have passed since the end of the Trojan War and Menelaus, King of Sparta and husband to Helen, is making his slow and painful way home. When his ship is wrecked on the coast of Egypt he stumbles upon what seems to be his wife lingering outside the royal palace. But if this is the real Helen, who was the beautiful woman stolen by Paris, for whom all Greece took up arms? Did Troy fall for nothing? Has it all been some god's idea of a joke?
Frank McGuinness's version of Euripides' Helen premiered at Shakespeare's Globe, London, in August, 2009.

According to this tragedy, Helen had been spirited away to Egypt while the gods gave Paris a phantom fashioned in her likeness. It was for the phantom that the Trojan War was fought. Meanwhile, Helen spends 17 years waiting in Egypt for Menelaus. At first, she comes under the protection of the Egyptian king Proteus, but after Proteus dies, she is forced to constantly dodge the advances of Proteus' son Theoclymenus, who demands that she marry him. When Menelaus arrives in Egypt after ten years of war and seven more of wandering, Helen is finally reunited with her husband. Though hounded by the dogged Theoclymenus, the two manage a daring escape with the help of Theoclymenus' sister Theonoe and return home together.

"Between Shades of Gray"by Ruta Sepetys

This book is partly based upon the stories Sepetys heard from survivors of Soviet repressions in the Baltic states during a visit to her relatives in Lithuania. Sepetys decided she needed to write a fiction novel rather than a non-fiction volume as a way of making it easier for survivors to talk to her. She interviewed dozens of people during her stay.

In June of 1941, fifteen-year-old Lina Vilkas is arrested by the Soviet Secret Police, the NKVD, from her home in Kaunas, Lithuania. She is arrested alongside her mother, Elena, and ten-year-old brother Jonas. Her father Kostas has been arrested earlier, and they don’t know where he is.

A few days ago (April 23), World Book Day was celebrated. On this occasion, Podmurvice Elementary School from Rijeka conducted a very interesting activity that affects our Frankopans!

Podmurvice Elementary School participates in the Erasmus project "Art & Literature in Education's Nature. Is it an A. Li. E.N.?" with five other European countries.

One of the activities they carry out as part of the project is TwinReaders, i.e. reading in pairs. Podmurvice Elementary School reads with the Spanish Gymnasium Purezza de Maria from Madrid, which sent them the English version of Don Quixote, and they sent them the English version of our Frankopan picture book The Wilful Wand by Velid Đekić.

Spanish students read The Wilful Wand, and chose the Frankopan picture book The Treasure of Trsat. After the reading, very interesting leaflets were made, and the young Spaniards were introduced to the story of The Routes of the Frankopans and are looking forward to a future trip to some of the Frankopan castles.

On the Night of the Book on April 23, 2021, they held an international Zoom meeting with the participation of 32 Spanish and Croatian students and 4 teachers.

All praise for the Erasmus team of Elementary School Podmurvice Rijeka, which consisted of: Luka, Neo, Niobio, Bruno, Leda, Vita, Luna, Nika and Marta, led by librarian Alida Devčić Crnić and secretary Marin Bogičević.

Meet the Frankopans

From Dujam to Fran Krsto, from the island of Krk to Wiener Neustadt, from 1118 to 1671… More than five and a half centuries of Croatian history is unthinkable without the Frankopans. There were no social and political duties and roles, which they did not perform; they were counts, bans, viceroys and warriors, supporters of the arts and poets, but at the end also political revolutionaries in search of a better world. Behind them they left codices, statutes and other important civil documents, recorded in the Croatian language and Glagolitic script. In their family line there are 114 Frankopans and 17 generations. Here is just a snippet of their story, to continue set off down The Routes of the Frankopans and visit us in the Trsat Castle.

Županijska svečana pjesma “Zavičaju, tebi” u novom ruhu

Under the protection of the star and lions

During history the Frankopans used two coats of arms. Until 1430 they used the old six-pointed star on a red background, and from that year they took the coat of arms of the Roman patrician family de Frangepanibus with two lions that are breaking bread. The oldest coats of arms of the Counts of Krk are recorded in stone form and they are not dated. The first testimony was noted in a travelogue by an anonymous Spanish friar who found himself in Senj in 1330, which at that time was under the administration of the Krk nobles. In the description of the flag of the town he indicates two fields, in the upper red one there was a six-pointed golden star, whilst the lower silver field was empty. The same colour combination and sign of a star is also found in the join of the ribs of the monastery church in Košljun, which the Frankopans obtained from the pope for the Franciscans. The change appears in 1430 when Nikola IV after a visit to the pope in Rome he received permission to use the coat of arms of the de Frangepanibus family. As a sign the supposed Roman relatives used two lions that are sharing bread, which in heraldry is also called a “talking” coat of arms, because the signs explain the meaning of the name of the genus: the sharers of bread. The new coat of arms did not supersede the old six-pointed star immediately, it began to be used gradually, often appearing in combination with the old one. On the coats of arms of Nikola’s sons the old coat of arms appeared in the right corner, whilst the Frankopan’s one was in the left corner: in a blue field two upright lions share three pieces of golden bread. Over time the old coat of arms was phased out, and the new Frankopan coat of arms lasted until the end of the family in 1671.
