A classic of childhood, this story of Nils has been translated
throughout the world. But never has it been issued in so lovely an
edition, nor one better keyed to its magic. The appeal, in the
beautiful type page and exquisite wash drawings by Hans Baumhauer,
is perhaps more adult than juvenile, but the true values of the
story are best conveyed in shared reading, by a sympathetic
grown-up. The story is familiar in abridged form to most people,-
as cruel little Nils is transformed into a comprehending elf, who
travels throughout Sweden on the back of a goose, sharing and
understanding the animal life about him, learning the meaning of
brotherhood. Gift book sale- for adults and for children. (Kirkus
Reviews)
In this newly illustrated edition of the classic Swedish folk tale,
Nils is shrunk to a tiny size by a dwarf, and carried across Sweden
by a flock of wild geese to their summer home in the far North.
Through many perils and exciting adventures, Nils wins the respect
and love of the geese and finally returns home.
