About This Passage
This is the moment Pinocchio finally promises the Fairy he will change. He lists three things he will do — study, work, and follow her wishes — and tells her that being a marionette is tiresome and that he wants to become a real boy. It is short, simple, and uses words in this lesson's vocabulary list.
I will study, I will work, I will do all you wish, because the life of a marionette is tiresome and I want to become a boy through and through.
