The Cricket comes back as a ghost to continue advising the puppet.
The Talking Cricket ( il Grillo Parlante) – The Talking Cricket is a cricket whom Pinocchio kills after it tries to give him some advice. Pescecane, while literally meaning "dog fish", generally means "shark" in Italian. The Terrible Dogfish ( Il terribile Pesce-cane) – A mile-long, five-story-high fish. The Fairy with Turquoise Hair ( la Fata dai capelli turchini) – The Blue-haired Fairy is the spirit of the forest who rescues Pinocchio and adopts him first as her brother, then as her son. When the people who visit there turn into donkeys he sells them. The Coachman ( l'Omino) – The owner of the Land of Toys who takes people there on his stagecoach pulled by twenty-four donkeys that mysteriously wear white shoes on their hooves. Romeo/"Lampwick" or "Candlewick" ( Lucignolo) – A tall, thin boy (like a wick) who is Pinocchio's best friend and a troublemaker. "Geppetto" is a syncopated form of Giuseppetto, which in turn is a diminutive of the name Giuseppe (Italian for Joseph). He wears a yellow wig that looks like cornmeal mush (or polendina), and subsequently the children of the neighborhood (as well as some of the adults) call him "Polendina", which greatly annoys him. Geppetto – Geppetto is an elderly, impoverished woodcarver and the creator (and thus father) of Pinocchio. #Adventures of pinocchio story series
