"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven..." The well-loved words of Ecclesiastes take on new life and meaning in the sun-baked rural setting of a South African homestead. Sowing, planting and reaping through the temperamental wet and dry seasons, going to market, day-to-day dealings with neighbours and acquaintances, love and hostility, the joy of celebration and sadness of mourning with family and friends - Jude Daly shows an ageless world in miniature, jewel-like detail and colour. Accompanied by familiar text from the King James Bible, this book could become a contemporary classic, to be enjoyed by young readers and Bible-lovers everywhere. The classic verse from Ecclesiastes is presented here in the King James version. The unusual, South African township setting gives new meaning to the familiar words. The illustrations are jewel-like. This is a contemporary classic for Bible-lovers.
