从前，有个小男孩儿叫尼尔斯。他整天调皮捣蛋，大家都不喜欢他。
一天，尼尔斯一个人在家。他用网兜在大衣箱旁边逮住一个小精灵，还捉弄了他一番。小精灵非常生气，临走前施魔法将尼尔斯变成了一个只有拇指大的小人儿！
“我变得这么小，爸爸妈妈一定不认得我了。我得把小精灵找回来，让他把我变回去！”尼尔斯离开家，四处寻找小精灵。
Once upon a time，there was a boy named Nils.What he liked most was to play tricks on others，so nobody liked him.
One day，Nils caught an elf and played tricks on him.The elf was very angry.He turned Nils into a very little man.And then he left.
“I am so small.My parents won’t recognize me.I’ll find the elf.He must turn me back to my original size.”
尼尔斯向动物们打听小精灵的去向，但平时受尽他欺负的小动物都不愿帮他。
找不到小精灵，尼尔斯失落地坐在院墙上，望着早春的天空发呆。
“嘿！一起走吧！跟我们回拉普兰德去！”一群野鹅飞过，对尼尔斯家里的家鹅吆喝着。一只叫马丁的年轻公鹅动心了，他极力扑腾着翅膀喊道：“等等我！”
“不许走！”尼尔斯为了阻止自家的鹅飞走，一把抓住马丁的脖子。但他忘记自己已经变小了，结果一下子被马丁带上了天！
Nils asked animals where the elf went.But they wouldn’t tell him，because Nils had played tricks on them too.
Nils was very sad.He sat ……on a wall and looked at the sky.
At this moment，some wild geese passed by.They called to the home geese，“Come along！Off to Lapland！”Morten，a young goose，was about to follow them.
“Oh，no！You can’t fly away！”Nils wanted to stop Morten.He jumped to Morten and tried to catch him.But right then，Morten flew up.Nils was taken up into the sky.
