In May 1961, Fleming sent his publisher the manuscripts for the first two volumes of "Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang". To illustrate the book, Fleming suggested the "Daily Mail" cartoonist Trog—the pseudonym of Wally Fawkes—as he admired the artist's work. While undertaking the preliminary drawings for the book, Trog tried to make the fudge recipe included in the book and found it was not particularly good: the editors at Jonathan Cape spent a day making up batches from different recipes to find a better one to use. Although Fawkes completed preliminary drawings for the project, the "Daily Mail" refused to allow him to complete the work as many of Fleming's works were serialised in its rival, the "Daily Express". Other early illustrative sketches were produced by artist Haro Hodson and motor engineer Amherst Villiers. After Trog was forced to withdraw from the project, Cape commissioned John Burningham, who had recently won the 1963 Kate Greenaway Medal for his book "".
