- Description
Considered a masterpiece since first published in 1907, this enchanting, remarkably original work by a Nobel Prize-winning author records the adventures of a mischievous 14-year-old who is changed into a tiny being, transported across the Swedish countryside on the back of a goose, and learns about nature, geography, and folklore.
Nils is a boy with little feeling for anything or anyone else. Shrunk by a dwarf as punishment, he is unexpectedly carried off with a flock of wild geese. His journey takes him to the far North of Sweden and back. Through his adventures, Nils learns to know and respect both humans and the life of nature.
