short biography
The writer Sergei Mikhailovich Belousov was born in 1950 in the city of Novosibirsk. Back in 5-6 years, the boy decided that he would become a writer. He mastered reading early, and this became his favorite pastime.
But fate decreed in its own way. The realities of that time required a profession, and writing was not possible for a living. Therefore, Sergei graduated from the Electrical Engineering Institute in his hometown and worked at large enterprises - he was engaged in the creation of automatic control systems.

But everything changed the daughter of the writer - at that time they were children. It was their actions, characters and various situations that prompted Belousov to create a children's book.
The prototype of the protagonist of the book, and then the whole series, was the friend of his daughters - Lenka. The girls themselves were also registered in the main storyline. It was they who helped Papa write these wonderful works. So, in 1992, the first book of the cycle "Along the Rainbow, or The Adventures of Pechenyushkin" appeared.
Then the second came out - "Death Pan". The third book appeared in 1996. It was called "Dragon Heart."
In the 2000s, Sergei Mikhailovich Belousov began writing books on culinary topics.
