OK. The letters to Graham Round, Pete Lyon and Paul Bonner have been printed 
and will be sent off tomorrow morning. E-mail to Pete Lyon and Rob Adams will 
be sent tomorrow morning. *nervous twitch*

I altered the wording of the letters slightly to mention where we found their 
contact details.

I also changed the bit about helping to contact the other artists by adding in 
the names of the "missing" artists. While it's unlikely that they are close 
personal friends with any of the artists in question, they may have a 
professional link or relationship with them which may help. And they might not 
know who the other artists involved were; it is 19 years later after all! ;-)

OK. I was thinking of E-mailing the following to Ladybird:


Dear Sir/Madam

I was wondering whether you could give me any information and details on how I
might be able to contact an author or illustrator who has recently worked on a
book published by Ladybird. What are the procedures involved? Would it be
possible for you to forward correspondence to the artist / author in question?

I would be grateful if you could reply to this mail at this address with the
information requested.

I hope you can help me. Thank you for your time.

Regards

Any alterations necessary?

OK. (Until it turns out he's living in England or France! :p )
