Dutch Niels Holgersson's Wonderbare Reis Produced by the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net/ "Niels Holgersson's Wonderbare Reis" by Selma Lagerlöf and Margaretha Meijboom is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a mischievous young boy named Niels Holgersson, who embarks on fantastical adventures after being enchanted by a kabouter (a mythical creature) and transformed into a tiny version of himself. This whimsical journey is set against the backdrop of the Swedish countryside, filled with magical creatures and the exploration of nature. The opening of the book introduces Niels as a fourteen-year-old boy who is known for his laziness and mischievous personality. As his parents prepare to attend church, he plans to indulge in his desires for fun and adventure instead of reading the sermon at home. However, when he falls asleep while pretending to read, he awakens to find a kabouter perched on his mother’s chest. The kabouter's magical appearance leads to a series of events resulting in Niels being transformed into a kabouter himself, igniting the journey that will change his outlook on life and the world around him. This opening sets the stage for the adventures and moral lessons that will unfold throughout the narrative.
