Illustrated by
Kathy Jakobsen.
In an exuberant m_lange of images, Jakobsen provides a rich and shifting harmony to a favorite folksong. The verses invoke a mythical journey of a guitar-carrying Woody across the landscape, from the "golden valley" to the relief office; the chorus invites us to all join in, with paneled pages dancing with postcard views of American monuments and gatherings of folk. Included is (if you need it) a simple arrangement of music.
