Dear Mr Murdoch:
Due to our success with the new Citizen's Cut of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain we have prepared a host of other classics that will be more appropriate for a clean and healthy education. Hopefully this meets with the approval of you and Mrs. Gradenko.
Sincerely,
The Publishing Corp
