Hi Jolene,
May I ask – I love your blog by the way! – did you find out more, or
have any reply from Penguin Random House, regarding ebook editions of
the Dorothy Gilman’s books, following your Feb 2017 blog post?
We publish a number of comparable series (eg Miss Seeton,
farragobooks.com/book-series/a-miss-seeton-mystery/), and are
wondering if we might be able to find a way to re-publish Mrs
Pollifax.
With best wishes,
Pete

It was a reminder that we hadn’t received a reply from Random House that I could find so I sent another one this morning. Below is a copy of it if you guys want to send one too. We might have better luck getting the remainder of the books into eBook format if there are lots of emails sent on the same subject.
Resent email to customerservice@penguinrandomhouse.com
