Langkau, Wolfgang Menges and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Wunderbare Reise des kleinen Nils Holgersson mit den Wildgänsen: Ein Kinderbuch" by Selma Lagerlöf is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a boy named Nils Holgersson, who, after a series of fantastical events, is transformed into a small size and embarks on an adventure with wild geese. Through his journey, he encounters various animals and learns valuable life lessons that foster growth and change in his character. The opening of the tale introduces us to Nils, a lazy and disobedient fourteen-year-old boy living with his poor parents in Sweden. As they leave for church, Nils is left behind to read a sermon, which he intends to avoid. Instead, he falls asleep, and upon waking, discovers a Wichtelmännchen (a mischievous little creature) in his room. After a brief encounter, Nils inadvertently finds himself transformed into a tiny version of himself, leading to a scene where he interacts with animals on his family farm, including the local geese. His transformation sets the groundwork for his subsequent adventures, emphasizing themes of humility, kindness, and respect for nature as he learns from his experiences throughout the journey.
