I loved reading through this book of verse from ecclesiastes as the illustrations brought in a unique perspective for a popular verse. The beautiful illustrations from around the world on each line of contrast pulled me in to keep going through to see how else the words would be painted. The verses match beautifully with the illustrations as you could see exactly what was being spoken in the various cultural styles depicted. What truly made this book magnificent is the section in the back about the illustrations themselves. It shares historical and cultural information regarding each illustration for the reader to further understand how the cultural illustration helped to depict the verse it was paired with. ( )

This book has beautiful illustrations. I loved the pictures so much. The cultural diversity was really wonderful to see. Each page has a concept of beginning and end, with the idea that everything goes on, and the bad is only temporary. I'm not sure what age I would use this book for. It could be used for k-12 depending on the use. ( )
