If you encounter something that stirs your heart, be brave and chase after it!

Oo-e is a little black dog. It really likes to chase moving things, just like any other dog. It would chase after flies, dragonflies, bats… The wind sweeps across the open fields, stirring green waves between trees, grass, and flowers. Curiosity flutters in the wind as curiosity cannot be contained, and an adventure in the fields begins…

It is like an active child filled with curiosity. It often reminds people when a kid is small, they would refuse to sleep because they are too preoccupied with playing. They only stop playing until they are fully exhausted and collapse at the vest at the last second. Whether it’s a puppy or a child, being able to run freely in the fields makes their hearts content; after exhaustion from having fun, they drift off to sleep, leaving their hearts filled with joy and satisfaction.

The authors use simple yet profound Taiwanese dialect writing to depict life's mischievousness, curiosity, and joy. Through changes in colors and light in the illustrations, readers can experience the transformations of rural scenery throughout the day. This book is filled with the lively sounds of birds flying, frogs croaking, dogs barking, and other lively scenes.
