GABRIELE GRASSI

A dad first, a writer by choice, a creative by instinct.

Gabriele Grassi is the heart and mind behind Orso Bruto, a grumpy-yet-sweet character born between baby bottles, diapers, and family laughter. After becoming a father, he turned his days filled with play and cuddles into illustrated stories that make kids giggle—and bring a smile to grown-ups too.

Passionate about writing and everything that sparks imagination, Gabriele chose to create books that speak the language of little ones: simple, funny, and genuine. But always with a deeper message—growing up together, learning from mistakes, and above all… laughing along the way.
