本故事是关于一只叫做阿文的小老鼠的，他有个习惯，无论是走路、吃饭、睡觉还是和其他小朋友玩时，都一定要带着他心爱的小毯子，有小毯子陪着阿文，他心里就很安稳，也不会整天都黏着妈妈和爸爸。但是，他慢慢长大，上小学了，他仍然不能离开小毯子。由于阿文太小而毯子太大，有一本书里还夸张地画了这个故事对比造型。阿文的妈妈爸爸觉得要改变这样的情况，既不让阿文过分地依赖小毯子，又不能让阿文感觉失去了小毯子，怎么办呢？终于，妈妈爸爸和阿文商量好，把小毯子剪下一块给阿文做了一块手绢，这样，阿文依然可以带着他的“小毯子”，但也能很好地与同学相处，适应学校的生活了。
This story is about a little mouse named Owen. He has developed a certain habit. Whether walking, eating, sleeping, or playing with other children, he must bring his beloved blanket along with him. Owen does not stick to his mother and father all day and yet, he cannot seem to leave his little blanket behind as he grows up and eventually goes to elementary school. Because Owen is really small and the blanket is really big, there is an exaggerated contrast between the two in this book.
Owen’s mother and father eventually felt that the situation with the blanket should be changed so that Owen will not be overly dependent on the blanket. However, they did not want to deprive Owen of his blanket either. What should they do? Finally, Mom and Dad discussed with Owen and decided to cut a piece of the blanket to make a handkerchief for him. In this way, Owen can still bring his "small blanket" around and also get along well with his classmates and adapt to school life.
