In "Jonah's Whale" by Giuliano Ferri, young readers embark on a captivating journey inspired by the biblical tale of Jonah. The story follows Jonah as he finds himself swallowed by a great whale after defying God's command. Inside the whale, he reflects on his choices and experiences a transformative journey of self-discovery and faith. Radiating themes of redemption and obedience, the narrative emphasizes the importance of listening to one’s conscience and the power of second chances. Beautifully illustrated, the book invites children to explore meaningful lessons about courage, spirituality, and the significance of heeding one’s true calling.
