Wiz (possibly Craig Virden's) letter to Robert Cormier
Wiz (likely Craig Virden) writes with what sounds like a second round of comments on a typescript of <em>Tunes for Bears to Dance To</em>. He speaks at length on the village destruction scene and the role and impact of Henry's father. He also mentions clarifying Mr. Levine's perspective and bringing some consistency to how George Graham is addressed. He also makes frequent mention of his care in the author-editor relationship and worries that he may overstep his boundaries despite trying to edit himself in that regard.
