Sinopse

Tono-Bungay H. G. Wells - Tono-Bungay by H.G. Wells is a story about George Ponderevo, who is persuaded to assist his uncle Edward in developing selling Tono-Bungay, a patent medicine. George spends seven years organizing and manufacturing the product, despite his belief that it is "a damned swindle." He then abandons day-to-day operations in favour of aeronautics. Still, he remains associated with his uncle, who develops into a first-rate financier and is on the verge of achieving social and economic dominance when his business empire implodes. George attempts to rescue his uncle's faltering finances by having stolen large quantities of a radioactive compound known as "quap" from an island off the coast of West Africa, but the excursion fails. George then arranges for his uncle's escape from England in an experimental aircraft he built. Still, the bankrupt entrepreneur-turned-financier contracts pneumonia and dies in a village near Bordeaux, despite George's efforts to save him.

It is about the mischievous adventures of an animated marionette named Pinocchio and his creator and father figure, a poor woodcarver named Geppetto.The story was originally published in 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. In February 1883, the story was published in a single book. Since then, Pinocchio has been one of the most popular children's books and been critically acclaimed.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. Philosopher Benedetto Croce considered it one of the greatest works of Italian literature. Since its first publication, it has inspired many works of fiction, such as Walt Disney's animated version, and commonplace ideas such as a liar's long nose..
