Yoram Tahar-Lev has been one of Israel's top lyricists for more than 30 years and many of his songs have become Israeli pop classics. Tahar-Lev's books of poetry have been best sellers and his children's books, many of them illustrated by himself have become standard fare in Israeli nursery schools and kindergartens.
