An illustrator with an inimitable style, Adolf Born is in high demand on the Czech market. Born's illustration of the rat-catcher of Hamelin, wearing four-legged rat shoes and a cap that points up into a rat's head, testifies to the illustrator's sense of humor and detail, underlined by his infinite imagination.
