The book itself (and the movies) are morally lighter than Collodi's original, being aimed at young children. Since the book and movies were produced during the Soviet era, they could have ended up ideologically heavy. Of course the tyrannic Karabas-Barabas can be seen as the embodiment of capitalism, and his puppets can represent the working class, but on the whole it's just a regular (quite entertaining) book for children. Big bad guy, little good guys, domination of evil, escape, happily ever after. There were many unforgettable moments (both in the movies and in the book), quotes and references that made it into the Russian culture, a popular soundtrack, etc. | The book itself (and the movies) are morally lighter than Collodi's original, being aimed at young children.
