Selma Lagerlef created her most famous work "The Amazing Journey of Nils Holgersson with Wild Geese in Sweden" when she worked as a school teacher. Initially, the book was conceived as a textbook on geography, with which the writer wanted to introduce children to their native country. However, the story turned out to be so fascinating that even adults fell in love with it, it was translated into many languages, withstood a large number of reprints and brought Lagerlef worldwide recognition, making her the first woman awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. More than a hundred years have passed since the first publication, but the fabulous story about a boy named Nils, who once turned into a tiny man and went on an unforgettable journey through Sweden with a flock of wild geese, wins the hearts of all new readers. In this edition, "Nils Holgersson's Amazing Journey with Wild Geese through Sweden" is given without abbreviations and is accompanied by wonderful illustrations, like the story itself, by Bertil Lubeck and Mary Hamilton Fry.
