Pinocchio — The Coach at Midnight

A dawn walk to see a monster out in the water, a quarrel on the sand, a party promised for the morning, and a wagon drawn by twelve small donkeys.

Retold for sleep from The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi, first published in 1883 and long out of copyright. The story is Collodi's; every sentence here is our own.
