Summary:  From the King James Version of the Bible- Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, 1:4

Butterfly’s notes:  To Every Thing There Is A Season couples the universal and poetic words from Ecclesiastes with truly inspired illustrations in various artistic styles from around the world.  This book is a great way to remember that all people around the world share a few fundamental rituals and emotions.
It’s easy to enjoy this book, even if you aren’t Christian or Jewish.  It can be a wonderful resource for dealing with hard times or for portraying a sober message during happy times.  I particularly like what it says about ancient world cultures.
