The Wonderful Adventures of Nils

Adventure through Sweden in this beautifully illustrated and sensitively abridged edition of Selma Lagerlöf's classic Swedish tale. When schoolboy Nils is magically shrunk to a tiny size, he begins a perilous journey traveling the length of Sweden. Soaring through the sky on the back of a goose, Nils discovers the wild and the wondrous: from frozen lakes and snow-topped mountains to lost cities, new friends and dangerous foes. Will he ever be able to return to his former life and his former size?
