The Old Master and the Wooden Dreamer

In a small Italian town, there lived an old puppet master. Every day, he toiled in his tiny workshop, crafting marionettes that seemed to come to life in his hands. But among all his creations, one was special — a wooden boy puppet, created with a heart full of dreams, yearning to become real. The boy marionette was playful and curious, with a long nose that always revealed his mischievousness. The old master, with a kind smile and patient hands, saw something more in this wooden boy — perhaps a reflection of his own youthful hopes and dreams. In the evenings, they "talked," as the master told stories of his past while the dreamer listened, always wishing to become real.
