Comic Kid looked up at the torch. He smiled, in deep admiration for the beautiful island he was on. I’m just like a moth, he thought to himself. It was dark all around him, night had fallen. He gave the glowing light a last glance and turned, heading back home through the silent, shadowy forest to post yet another lovely sneak peek for the Creators’ Blog he was working at.
Soon after posting, Comic Kid went off to explore again so he would have content to put in his next sneak peek. He’ll be back soon! Meanwhile, a very alert lizard had been watching, and immediately informed everyone about this gorgeous landscape – and that was none other than the great Grey Lizard! Blog picture below:
Hmm. Did he say torches? I hope the rest of them are just as interesting as this one is! And isn’t Comic Kid standing on a rock there? Maybe we will get to do that someday too. Many say that this is a Reality TV Island sneak peek. I’m not sure, but I sure hope it is! 😀
Welcome to another wonderful week of ‘Poptropica Help Blog Sneak Peaks’. These posts are posted every week on Sundays. In every new post there will be stories that only we have. And only we post them. These stories are classified and are very secret.
This week’s story is ”The Little Wooden Boy”, It is about a puppet that wants to become a boy.
-The Little Wooden Boy- I’m not a puppet, I’m a real boy.
Geppetto, a poor old wood carver, was making a puppet from a tree branch. “You shall be my little
boy,” he said to the puppet, “and I shall call you ‘Pinocchio’.” He worked for hours, carefully carving each detail. When he reached the mouth, the puppet started making faces at Geppetto. “Stop that, you naughty boy,” Geppetto scolded, “Stop that at once !” “I won’t stop !” cried Pinocchio.
“You can talk !” exclaimed Geppetto.
“Of course I can, silly,” said the puppet. “You’ve given me a mouth to talk with.” Pinocchio rose to his feet and danced on the table top. “Look what I can do !” he squealed.
“Pinocchio, this is not the time to dance,” Geppetto explained. “You must get a good night’s rest. Tomorrow you will start going to school with the real boys. You will learn many things, including how to behave.”
On his way to school the next morning, Pinocchio stopped to see a puppet show. “I can dance and sing better than those puppets and I don’t need strings,” boasted Pinocchio. He climbed onto the stage.
“Get off my stage,” roared the Puppet Master. Then he noticed how much the crowd liked Pinocchio. He did not say anything and let Pinocchio stay. “Here, you’ve earned five copper coins,” the Puppet Master told Pinocchio.
"Every time you tell a lie, your nose will grow. When you tell the truth, it will shrink."
“Take these coins and go straight home,” said the Puppet Master. Pinocchio put the coins into his sack.
He did not go very far before he met a lame Fox and a blind Cat. Knowing that Pinocchio had money, they pretended to be his friends. “Come with us. We’ll teach you how to turn those copper pieces into gold,” coaxed the sneaky Cat.
“We want to help you get rich. Plant your coins under this magic tree. In a few hours they’ll turn to gold,” said the Fox.
“Show me where,” said Pinocchio excitedly. The Cat and Fox pointed to a patch of loose dirt. Pinocchio dug a hole and put the sack in it, marking the spot with a stone.
“Splendid !” exclaimed the Cat. “Now let’s go to the inn for supper.” After supper, the Fox and Cat, who weren’t really lame or blind, quickly snuck away and disguised themselves as thieves. They hid by the tree waiting for Pinocchio to come back and dig up the money. After Pinocchio dug up the coins they pounced on him.
“Give us your money!” they ordered. But Pinocchio held the sack between his teeth and resisted to give the sack to them. Again they demanded, “Give us your money !”
Pinocchio’s Guardian Fairy, who was dressed all in blue and had blue hair, sent her dog, Rufus, to chase the Fox and Cat away. She ordered Rufus to bring Pinocchio back to her castle. “Please sit down,” she told Pinocchio. Rufus kept one eye open to watch what was going on.
“Why didn’t you go to school today?” she asked Pinocchio in a sweet voice.
“I did,” answered Pinocchio. Just then, his nose shot out like a tree branch. “What’s happening to my nose?” he cried.
“Every time you tell a lie, your nose will grow. When you tell the truth, it will shrink,” said the Blue Fairy.
“Pinocchio, you can only become a real boy if you learn how to be brave, honest and generous.”
The Blue Fairy told Pinocchio to go home and not to stop for any reason. Pinocchio tried to remember what the Blue Fairy told him…
So that’s my Sneak Peaks this week. Next week will be a surprise. Maybe something that it is a little bit mummy like or something that is a little bit sneaky. See you next week.

The sight of the strange and distant landscape of a very red-hot planet on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog! Looks like volcanoes to me, the Poptropican thinks. Blog picture below:
Again, here’s a reminder of how you should post around the PHB. Please take the time to read this!
You are not required to type in perfect spelling/grammar. You may use abbreviations such as “u” for you, or misspell a few words if you can’t find the right spelling, such as “spasifik” instead of “specific”. However, you need to keep your comments readable.
If you find that you or someone else used the wrong spelling or grammar for a word, phrase, or sentence, even though you/they didn’t want to, please don’t comment to correct the person. It’s not necessary. It will only waste comment space (there’s no limit, but it’s better to keep it neat), people will get off-topic to have a big discussion about it, and if you knew what they were trying to say enough to want to correct them, we’re sure everybody else will understand it too. So, please don’t comment that way.
Also, when someone tells about a new post on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog, it’s not an invitation for everyone to start discussing it. The PHB will eventually post about the Creators’ new post, and when we do, that would be the time to talk about it. Not on the older posts, because it’s considered off-topic there.
Thanks for understanding! 😉

Interested in another “super-special” costume’s sneak peek? Check this out: Dragon Dress-Up
Thirsty Eel, one of the PHB’s commenters, says that this dragon costume may have pieces from the rumored Monster Carnival Island, and predicts that they may be combining Astro-Knights with Monster Carnival. It’s just a theory, since nobody’s actually sure if this is really for Astro Island… but who knows? (For more information regarding Monster Carnival’s item leak, see this post.) Let us know what you think!

This poll may be hinting that Poptropica could be selling real life merchandise soon. It looks a lot like they’re trying to make money out of this game…

Also, I’m not sure how long this has been here, but I’ve just noticed that the Poptropica Creators’ Blog has a slightly different header! Here’s what it looks like:
They’ve changed the words “Creators’ Blog” to a light orange-ish color. It used to be white!
Also, a little ™ sign is now next to the “A” of Poptropica at the top. “TM” is short for “Trademark”, which is kind of like a tag, symbol, or mark that shows that a company/business owns something.
After many weeks those Pirates that Codien saw have landed. They have crashed on a giant pointy rock, and are roaming Poptropica right now.
Yesterday, PCB announced that they had released a Pirate Adventure Advertisement, Just for 6 – 8. Just for 6-8!Doesn’t Poptropica know that there are people older then 8 that are playing. So the only way to do the advertisement (If your Poptropican is older then 8) is to make a new player , and set the age betwen 6-8.
The new advertisement, based around Pirates, is advertising Froot Loops newest fruity treasure, ‘Frooty Golden Bars!’ The Froot Loop Treasure Chest Building can be found on Spy Island, 24 Carrot island, and Early Poptropica Island , and can only be accessed via a golden key.
This golden key has been broken up and given out to 3 Pirates. These Pirates are hidden around Poptropica and will only give you the key after you complete a game.
The 3 games are ‘Rebuild the Map’, ‘Pirate Labyrinth’, and ‘Pirate Target Practice’. Each one is easy yet challenging.
After all three pieces of the key are handed to you, you will then get access to the Froot Loop Building. Inside is Toucan Sam and his gang, all the games you played to get the key , a advertisement movie about the froot loop gang finding the golden bars, and a special prize thats goldeny. 😀
NOTE:To do the advertisement or find the pirates your Poptropican must be between the ages of 6 – 8. Which means if you seem to not be able to find the pirates then its because your age is to high. Create a new player with the right age and do the mission.
The Pirate locations are:
This pirate can be found on the roof of the Headquaters in Spy Island.
To win a piece of the key “ye must prove your worth at the target range” in the game Pirate Target Practice’. You use your mouse to control the cannon, you can hold down to extend how far the cannon fires.
Your aim is to get all the Froot Loops, PLUS the new Golden Bar, and get as many points as possible. Remember
shooting the images of Black Beak will cause you to loose 25 points.
This pirate can be found on the roof of the Pop Art Museum building which can be accessed via the blimp rope in Early Poptropica Island.
To win the piece of key “ye must put back together thee map” in the game ‘Rebuild the Map’.
Your aim is to put the map back together like a puzzle.
This pirate can be found on the roof of ‘Charlies’s Surplus Co.’ building which can be accessed via the gas pumps in 24 Carrot Island.
To win the piece of key “ye must finish thee maze in time” in the game ‘Pirate Labyrinth’. You use your mouse to move the golden bar piece around.
Your aim is to reach the end in time. You can extend the time by getting froot loops. Remember hitting the images of Black Beak will take off 5 seconds.
Ahhh. You have to love classic children stories. And you’re going to love this even more when it comes to Poptropica.
This pirate can be found on the roof of the Headquaters in Spy Island.
