The wonderful journey of Nils, content:

Audio tale Nils' wonderful journey with wild geese in Sweden, where a ten-year-old boy lived, without whom this whole story, which you will now start listening to online, would not have been created. He grew up as a hooligan, did not listen to his parents, and was generally very lazy and angry.

One day, Nils’s parents went to the market, and the gnome who lived in their house was very offended by the boy and turned him into a gnome too. Meanwhile, Martin the goose wants to fly to Lapland with a wild flock, and Nils intends to prevent this. But the goose simply threw him onto his back and the journey began!

During this whole fantastic epic, Nils managed to save several animals, so Akki decided that it was time for the boy to return home and become human again.

However, Nils does not want to end this wonderful adventure at all, and he continued the journey, in which he survived many dangers and chose decency, having decided on his moral choice.

In the fall, almost at the very end of this online audio tale, he returned from Lapland. Goose Martin brought him right into the yard of the house, and the boy’s parents almost killed the gander.

Nils selflessly strives to help his friend, saves him and becomes an ordinary boy.

1

In the small Swedish village of Vestmenheg, there once lived a boy named Nils. In appearance - a boy like a boy.

And there was no trouble with him.

During lessons, he counted crows and caught twos, destroyed birds' nests in the forest, teased geese in the yard, chased chickens, threw stones at cows, and pulled the cat by the tail, as if the tail was a rope from a doorbell.

He lived like this until he was twelve years old. And then an extraordinary incident happened to him.

That's how it was.

One Sunday, father and mother gathered for a fair in a neighboring village. Nils couldn't wait for them to leave.

“Let’s go quickly! - Nils thought, looking at his father’s gun, which was hanging on the wall. “The boys will burst with envy when they see me with a gun.”

But his father seemed to guess his thoughts.

Look, not a step out of the house! - he said. - Open your textbook and come to your senses. Do you hear?

“I hear,” Nils answered, and thought to himself: “So I’ll start spending Sunday on lessons!”

Study, son, study,” said the mother.

She even took out a textbook from the shelf herself, put it on the table and pulled up a chair.

And the father counted out ten pages and strictly ordered:

So that by the time we return he knows everything by heart. I'll check it myself.

Finally, father and mother left.

“It’s good for them, they walk so merrily! - Nils sighed heavily. “I definitely fell into a mousetrap with these lessons!”

Well, what can you do! Nils knew that his father was not to be trifled with. He sighed again and sat down at the table. True, he was looking not so much at the book as at the window. After all, it was much more interesting!

According to the calendar, it was still March, but here in the south of Sweden, spring had already managed to outdo winter. Water ran merrily in the ditches. The buds on the trees have swelled. The beech forest straightened its branches, numb in the winter cold, and now stretched upward, as if it wanted to reach the blue spring sky.

And right under the window, chickens walked with an important air, sparrows jumped and fought, geese splashed in muddy puddles. Even the cows locked in the barn sensed spring and mooed loudly, as if asking: “You-let us out, you-let us out!”

Nils also wanted to sing, and scream, and splash in puddles, and fight with the neighboring boys. He turned away from the window in frustration and stared at the book. But he didn't read much. For some reason, the letters began to jump before his eyes, the lines either merged or scattered... Nils himself did not notice how he fell asleep.

Who knows, maybe Nils would have slept all day if some rustling had not woken him up.

Nils raised his head and became wary.

The mirror that hung above the table reflected the entire room. There is no one in the room except Nils... Everything seems to be in its place, everything is in order...

And suddenly Nils almost screamed. Someone opened the lid of the chest!

The mother kept all her jewelry in the chest. There lay the outfits that she wore in her youth - wide skirts made of homespun peasant cloth, bodices embroidered with colored beads; starched caps as white as snow, silver buckles and chains.

Mother did not allow anyone to open the chest without her, and she did not let Nils come close to it. And there’s nothing to even say about the fact that she could leave the house without locking the chest! There has never been such a case. And even today - Nils remembered this very well - his mother returned from the threshold twice to tug on the lock - did it latch well?

Who opened the chest?

Maybe while Nils was sleeping, a thief got into the house and is now hiding somewhere here, behind the door or behind the closet?

Nils held his breath and peered into the mirror without blinking.

What is that shadow there in the corner of the chest? Here it moved... Now it crawled along the edge... A mouse? No, it doesn't look like a mouse...

Nils couldn't believe his eyes. There was a little man sitting on the edge of the chest. He seemed to have stepped out of a Sunday calendar picture. On his head is a wide-brimmed hat, a black caftan is decorated with a lace collar and cuffs, stockings at the knees are tied with lush bows, and silver buckles glitter on red morocco shoes.

“But it’s a gnome! - Nils guessed. “A real gnome!”

Mother often told Nils about gnomes. They live in the forest. They can speak human, bird, and animal. They know about all the treasures that were buried in the ground at least a hundred or a thousand years ago. If the gnomes want it, the flowers will bloom in the snow in winter; if they want it, the rivers will freeze in the summer.

Well, there’s nothing to be afraid of the gnome. What harm could such a tiny creature do?

Moreover, the dwarf did not pay any attention to Nils. He seemed to see nothing except a velvet sleeveless vest, embroidered with small freshwater pearls, that lay in the chest at the very top.

While the gnome was admiring the intricate ancient pattern, Nils was already wondering what kind of trick he could play with his amazing guest.

It would be nice to push it into the chest and then slam the lid. And here's what else you can do...

Without turning his head, Nils looked around the room. In the mirror she was all there in front of him in full view. A coffee pot, a teapot, bowls, pots were lined up in strict order on the shelves... By the window there was a chest of drawers filled with all sorts of things... But on the wall - next to my father's gun - was a fly net. Just what you need!

Nils carefully slid to the floor and pulled the net off the nail.

One swing - and the gnome hid in the net like a caught dragonfly.

His wide-brimmed hat was knocked to one side, his feet were entangled in the skirts of his caftan. He floundered at the bottom of the net and waved his arms helplessly. But as soon as he managed to rise a little, Nils shook the net, and the gnome fell down again.

Listen, Nils,” the dwarf finally begged, “let me go free!” I'll give you a gold coin for this, as big as the button on your shirt.

Contents of the audio tale

Every nation has a poet, prose writer and playwright, in whose name a person of any nation can say: this is the pride of England... or Norway... or Italy...

For Sweden, this name is Selma Lagerlöf (1858 - 1940). The writer’s fiftieth birthday (in 1908) turned into a national holiday in her homeland, and the centenary, by decision of the World Peace Council, was celebrated by people in many countries around the world where her works are read and loved. One of the novels of the remarkable Swedish writer - “The Saga of Yesta Berling” - has been translated into all European languages. The children's book “Nils Holgerson's Travels Through Sweden” (1906 - 1907) became world famous, in which the poetic history of the country, the appearance of its cities and outskirts, the customs of the inhabitants, legends, and fairy-tale traditions of the sagas are revealed to young readers.

If you try to define the entire genre of Selma Lagerlöf’s work, it turns out that her novels and stories, plays, poems and fairy tales are all written in the form and traditions of the Scandinavian sagas.

This form arose a very, very long time ago. Back then, when people not only in cold Scandinavia, but, perhaps, in no other country in the world knew how to write. In Russia, tales about heroes and their amazing feats are called epics. And in snowy Norway and green Sweden, these legends are called sagas.

Rarely is a literary hero born who becomes not just a character in a story or fairy tale, but also the personification of an entire nation. The hero of Selma Lagerlöf's novel “The Saga of Yeste Berling” became in the eyes of readers around the world just such a national hero of Sweden, an expression of the people's spirit of freedom, the dream of the beauty and dignity of man. It is not for nothing that in 1909 the creator of this magnificent book was awarded the highest literary prize. The jury's decision to award Selma Lagerlöf the Nobel Prize stated that it was given "for noble idealism and richness of imagination." And in 1914, the writer was elected a member of the Swedish Academy.

“The wealth of fantasy” by Selma Lagerlöf is truly inexhaustible, and this creative fantasy manifests itself in amazing, bizarre, beautiful forms, events, and images. It would seem, where can miracles come from if little Nils Holgerson is the most ordinary “harmful” and lazy boy who doesn’t learn his lessons, drags a cat by the tail and, more than anything in the world, loves to tease geese, disobey adults and whine? However, it is his lot that falls to a great many adventures, magical transformations, dangers and even... feats! Yes, yes, our Nils, who always pesters adults with complaints and has never done anything good to anyone, this same Nils will accomplish feats that are beyond the power of the most exemplary goodies and crammers! For many months, our little hero, having almost forgotten his native language, acquires the wonderful gift of understanding the speech of animals and birds. He will rise above the ground and see his village, lakes and forests, and the whole huge country... In his travels, Nils will discover not only all of Scandinavia and “Lapland - goose country”, but also something else, perhaps the most important thing in life - what friendship is, what is help in trouble, what is love for those who are weaker than you and who really need your protection. And he, so small, with the help of his winged friends, will dare to enter into a dangerous battle with a cunning, strong enemy - the Fox Smirre himself! And no matter how the deceived Fox hisses, barks and jumps, the brave Nils will defeat him!

What happened to Nils? How did he get into the flock of geese? How did he manage to return to his parents again?

You will find out all this now. Artists and musicians have gathered to tell you about “Nils’s wonderful journey with the wild geese.” Put on a record of a fairy tale, and this amazing story will begin...

What is the work about?

The tale represents the journey of a 14-year-old boy, Nils, who once offended a brownie, for which he reduced the boy in size. Now Nils sees the world around him through the eyes of the animals he tortured before.

One day the boy noticed that his goose Morten had decided to go to Lapland with a flock of wild geese. Out of habit, Nils grabs the goose's neck, and it takes him away with him. From this moment the boy's fascinating journey begins through the provinces of Sweden and remote areas of Scandinavia. Nils finds himself in different situations, his journey is filled with various adventures, he learns a lot of interesting things about the geography, culture and history of the country where he lives. When Nils returns home, he becomes a completely different person, with different views on life and the world around him.

What is the moral of the story?

The fairy tale “Nils's Journey” was originally written as an educational, instructive story. There are many geographical, historical and cultural points about Sweden. If we talk about the moral of the fairy tale, then first of all it teaches to be kind to animals and people around us, condemns those who offend the weak, and shows that bad deeds will certainly be punished. But the lesson taught changes a person for the better: Nils becomes kind, responsible, empathetic, resourceful and brave. The main message of the fairy tale is not to offend the weak and selflessly help those who are in trouble.

Who is the author of the fairy tale?

Selma Lagerlöf is a Swedish writer and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature. The writer was born in 1858 in the family of a retired military man and a teacher. The girl was inspired to write by her childhood environment: it was the picturesque area of Värmland.

When, at the age of 3, Selma suffered a serious illness, as a result of which the girl was paralyzed, her only joy was the fairy tales of her grandmother and aunt, who delighted the little girl with them tirelessly. After 6 years, the girl’s ability to move was restored, and from that moment on, Selma decides that in the future she will definitely plunge into literary creativity.
