Tolikrát jsi slíbil, že se polepšíš, ale ani jednou jsi to nedokázal! To ti nevadí, jaké starosti nám děláš? Jsi pěkný lumpík! Jak to dokážeš, že tě přesto máme všichni rádi? Když se příběh chýlí ke konci a tebe sežere obrovitý žralok, setkáš se v jeho útrobách s Geppettem, kterého žralok schramstl dřív než tebe. A tobě se podaří tatínka zachránit!

Jednoho dne si vyřezal pan Gepetto z polínka panáčka. A stal se zázrak, panáček ožil, hýbal se a mluvil. Gepetto jej pojmenoval Pinocchio, vyrobil mu šaty z papíru, a aby se panáček vyznal ve světě, poslal jej do školy. Prodal kvůli tomu i svou kazajku, jen aby měl Pinocchio slabikář. Jenže nezvedený panáček do školy nešel a svůj slabikář vyměnil za lístek do loutkového divadla. Naštěstí se nad ním slitoval principál divadelního souboru a věnoval Pinocchiovi pro Gepetta pět zlaťáků. Dva potulní šizunkové, lišák s kocourem, se naivního Pinocchia o jeho poklad snažili připravit, ale nakonec, s pomocí hodných zvířátek i dobrotivé víly, se Pinocchio šťastně opět shledal s Gepettem. Slavnou dětskou knihu napsal její italský autor již před sto čtyřiceti lety.

Tato naše nahrávka vznikla podle dramatizace v roce 1969 a využila schopnosti Jiřiny Bohdalové ztvárnit věrohodně a s humorem dětskou postavu. Ke zlatému kádru české interpretační školy ostatně patří celý další herecký tým. Díky všem tvůrcům se tento Pinocchio řadí k tomu nejlepšímu, co u nás za poslední půlstoletí před mikrofonem vzniklo.
