Yijun Cai is a freelance illustrator and recipient of the Golden Dragon Award at the Original Animation & Comic Competition, who now resides in Hangzhou, China. She often draws her inspiration from curious thoughts. One winter night, she wondered, 'When humans can't sleep, we try all sorts of methods to make ourselves fall asleep. What about bears? If bears can't sleep, it's not as simple as just staying up one night - it's for a whole season!' And that is how Brown Bear Can't Sleep was born.
"""The artwork features stylized animals with shades of brown and blue predominating. Those in search of current titles from China may wish to consider adding this title as representative."" --Kirkus Reviews"
