On September 15, 2003, X released her first children's book Y and it instantly became the biggest and fastest selling book ever by a first-time children's author. Y debuted at number one on the NewYork Times Bestsellers List for children's picture books and remained there for an impressive eighteen weeks. Y received the widest launch in publication history as it was released in over a hundred countries on the same day; it also debuted in thirty languages. It is now available in 40 languages and in more than 110 countries worldwide.

Her series of books may very well mark the existence for the first time of kabbalist children's books.
