In 1902 the author received a commission from the National Teacher s Association to write a book for public schools. She devoted three years to Nature study and to familiarizing herself with animal and bird life. She has sought out hitherto unpublished folklore and legends of the different provinces. These she has ingeniously woven into her story. The Wonderful Adventures of Nils is so well known in Swedish culture. It has been translated into many languages and used for schools as supplementary reading.
