The naughty little boy, Dai Doudou, is often told to keep quiet by his mother when he's being too noisy. He's told to keep quiet while eating, while walking, and even when bouncing a ball...and so it was that Dai Doudou decided to become a gentle, quiet little mouse, free to roam around wherever he pleased. His father agreed to the idea, and himself decided to turn into a mouse. In the end, even his mother, who wanted everyone to “keep quiet”, turns into a mouse. The book employs gentle humour to describe a child's escape from a stifling family life into the realm of imagination; looking at modern, everyday problems through a lens of fantasy and illusion.

调皮小孩戴逗逗常常会发出很大的声音,所以他的妈妈总是要求他轻一点:吃饭轻一点,走路轻一点,拍球轻一点……有一天,戴逗逗变成了一只轻手轻脚的小耗子,而他的爸爸积极响应这种自由自在的改变,也变成了一只轻手轻脚的小耗子。最后,连要求大家轻一点的妈妈都变成了一只小耗子……该图画书以轻松幽默的笔调描写了一个孩子在家庭生活中被处处要求、限制的不自由,以及他充满恶作剧式的逃避,以幻想的形式思考了现实的教育问题,在快乐中解决了亲子关系的矛盾。全书绘画精美,场景多变,引领小读者跟随文字在现实世界和想象世界自由穿梭。
