czechoslovakian illustration

i am looking at czechoslovakian children's book illustration from the 1960s.  these books are so obscure and rare, but i hope to get my hands on some of them someday.  i don't have anything czech in my collection yet.  my favorite is květa pacovská (i remember drooling over her book the little flower king, but i want to find it in the original czech):

also very charming are books by vlasta váňová and alena santarová (this especially because of the elephant).  this illustration reminds me of everything good, happy, and magical in the world.
