Dear Sydnei and Karen,

It is a treat for me to find great children's books, and especially so when I find one that gives us gentle insight into difficult topics. I look forward to you and your families reading "Buddy's Candle." I have posted, at FAR BBS, an article Bernie wrote called "Understanding Why." His publicist sent it to me today and said I could use it. While I do not agree entirely with the "why," I respect Bernie for making this attempt to explain the most difficult topic of all, and I SO enjoy the way he tells stories.

Karen, it is wonderful to see you here! I believe I saw some used copies at Amazon. Hope you can find a copy to read. It is very new but will probably become more readily available.

With love,
Dave



"Symmetry and asymmetry are convivial. The paradox of order and chaos in simultaneous improvisation is such a challenge to hold in focus. But in that balancing, (for it is surely in infinite process and never totally balanced)--- in that conversation, -- in that music, the new enters the patterns."
