Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wonderful Adventures of Nils This book, which is the latest work of Sweden's greatest fiction writer, was published in Stockholm, December, 1906. It became immediately the most popular book of the year in Scandinavia. Four years ago the author received a commission from the National Teachers' Association to write a reader for the public schools. She devoted three years to Nature study and to familiarising herself with animal and bird life. She sought out hitherto unpublished folk-lore and legends of the different provinces. These she has ingeniously woven into her story. The book has been translated into German and Danish, and the book reviewers of Germany and Denmark, as well as those of Sweden, are unanimous in proclaiming this Selma Lagerlof's best work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One afternoon Akka from Kebnekaise and her flock alighted on the shore of a forest lake. Spring was backward -- as it always is in the mountain districts. Ice covered all the lake save a narrow strip next the land. The geese at once plunged into the water to bathe and hunt for food. In the morning Nils Holgersson had dropped one of his wooden shoes, so he went down by the elms and birches that grew along the shore, to look for something to bind around his foot.The boy walked quite a distance before he found anything that he could use. He glanced about nervously, for he did not fancy being in the forest."Give me the plains and the lakes!" he thought. "There you can see what you are likely to meet. Now, if this were a grove of little birches, it would be well enough, for then the ground would be almost bare; but how people can like these wild, pathless forests is incomprehensible to me. If I owned this land I would chop down every tree."

Book excerpt: Scandinavia's best-loved children's classic - the enchanting story of a naughty little boy who learns to love nature 'Never before had Nils travelled around at such good speed, and he had always liked riding fast and wild. And he had never thought that it could feel as fresh as it did up in the air, and that such a good smell of topsoil and resin rose up from the earth. It was like flying away from worries and sorrows and annoyances of any sort that could be imagined.'
