My first Childrens book, Yam Meets Zbigniew the Dwarf , has been published.  Way back around 2012, as my child Yam and I were winding down for bed, I began spinning little tales about “The Other Yam”—a boy who was a lot like him… and had interesting and surprising adventures in lands and places that were near but far. Yam listened wide-eyed, always asking for more.

An African refugee is murdered in Tel Aviv, and the police investigation stalls. His employer, a shy and introspective protagonist, receives the victim's final message: a letter containing evidence of a possi...
