Nils doesn't feel like helping his parents and finds going to school boring. He prefers to annoy the cat or the geese – but when he catches a goblin, he's caught the wrong one: Before he knows it, he's transformed into Thumbling and suddenly experiences what it's like to be small and powerless. When he tries to stop Martin the house goose from following the call of the wild geese to freedom, he unexpectedly finds himself high in the air on Martin's back. This is the beginning of the famous journey of little Nils Holgersson with the wild geese, which Selma Lagerlöf wrote down over 100 years ago – for which she was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature – and which still tells us a lot about responsibility, friendship, and how we treat our environment.
