Nils Holgerssoni imeline teekond läbi Rootsi by Selma Lagerlöf
5.0
"The Wonderful Adventures of Nils Holgersson" is a story about a stubborn boy who is behaving badly and one day when his parents are in church, he is visited by a leprechaun that uses magic to turn him into a really small lad. The tiny Nils is shocked, but being afraid to show himself to his parents in these conditions, goes exploring in his home farm, discovers his ability to speak to animals, crawls onto the neck of a domestic goose Morten and takes flight together with a flock of wild geese over beautiful Sweden.
The story has wonderful character development as the naughty boy Nils learns a lot about life, earns animals' respect and turns into a better person day by day. It's adventurous and the story becomes more heartwarming page by page. It tells a lot about what nature and culture looked like in 1900s Sweden, the psychology of animals and wondrous happenings with mythical creatures.
I will recommend this book to both children and adults - it's that awesome!
