"An accomplished writer, willing to stand
with children, good at children's perspective,
to listen to children's ears, to see children's
eyes, especially children When the mind is
gone, it will inevitably write a work that
children can understand and like to read."

Chen BoChui（陈伯吹）(1906–1997) was a famous Chinese writer and literary
translator, particularly of children’s literature. He translated The Wizard of
Oz, Don Quixote, Pushkin's Children's Tales and Heidi into Chinese. He left
all of his savings to set up the Chen Bochui Children's Literature Award, a
yearly prize meant to encouraging the creation of children's literature in
China. This award, in which lay the foundations of the present Chen Bochui
International Children Literature Award(CICLA), rewarded most of the pro-
minent Chinese children’s writers of the late 20th century. Chen Bochui is
known in China as the “Andersen of the East” and as one of the fathers of
Chinese Modern Children's Literature.

Bochui published over 70 books, including A Cat That Wants to Fly,
and On Children’s Literature. He engaged in creative writing and in literary
criticism.
