In all eight people where discovered who had letters and illustrated envelopes, which had all been kept. Blue Peter covered this astonishing development in a further feature and yet another person came forward, but we lost contact before we managed to see their letters. All of the 200 newly discovered letters, cards and envelopes were displayed on the programme and we wonder how many more people have letters from Sir Henry. We do know that there are more, because one of the people who came forward with the letters to her and her brother in the 1930 s, could remember sitting on Sir Henry s lap in his house on Lake Geneva, when he wrote to sick children whom he had heard about. We believe that Kaka would have loved the internet and email, and we hope that he would have approved of, and shared in, our enjoyment in enabling children everywhere around the globe to share in the experience of receiving a card or letter from Kaka.
