Origenes Lessa was a journalist, novelist, Brazilian essayist, and immortal of the Brazilian Academy of Letters.

Since 1970, he has also devoted himself to children's and youth literature, and has published almost 40 titles in this area, which have made him an author known and loved by Brazilian children and young people.
