Seeger's Ecclesiastes-inspired folk song has been illustrated with delicate watercolor and pencil art depicting nature, feelings, folk causes, and Seeger himself with his banjo. Subdivided circles that must be "rotated" to view the tiny scenes within, illuminate lyrics such as "a time to be born, a time to die." Printed music and a CD featuring Seeger and the Byrds are included.
