About the author

Chaim Walder (born 1969) was an Israeli Haredi rabbi and author of literature for children, adolescents, and adults. In 1993, he became an Israeli publishing sensation with his first book, Yeladim Mesaprim al Atzmam (Hebrew: ילדים מספרים על עצמם‎, Children Talk About Themselves, translated into English as Kids Speak), which revolutionized literature for Haredi children by introducing young protagonists who speak openly about their problems and feelings. Yeladim Mesaprim al Atzmam became one of the top five bestselling books of all time in Israel, and opened the door for many more writers to produce original fiction for Haredi youth. Walder was also a long-time columnist on social issues for the Hebrew daily Yated Ne'eman, an educational counselor, and manager of the Center for the Child and Family, operated by the Bnei Brak municipality.

In December 2021, Walder, who faced accusations of sexual assault from nearly two dozen alleged victims, committed suicide while leaving a note maintaining his innocence.
