Further details:

“The boy couldn’t help laughing. He has always liked riding fast and wildly, but he had never thought it could be so fresh and free as it was up here in the air, and what a good smell of soil and resin could rise from the earth. Being carried along as high as this was like flying away from all his troubles and annoyances.”

One morning Nils Holgersson finds himself transformed from an ordinary boy to a tiny gnome. Perhaps he shouldn’t have been so naughty!

Carried across Sweden by a flock of wild geese to their summer home in the far North, Nils faces danger and exciting adventures. Can he prove that he has become good and kind and discover the magic that will allow him to return home?
