In "Jonah and the Big Fish," the story follows Jonah, a reluctant prophet who is commanded by God to deliver an important message to the people of Nineveh. Instead of obeying, Jonah attempts to escape by boarding a ship, but a violent storm leads to his discovery. To save the crew, Jonah is thrown overboard and is swallowed by a giant fish. After three days and nights inside the fish, Jonah prays for forgiveness and is miraculously released.

This book contains the following story:

Jonah and the Whale
Long ago there lived a man called Jonah. One day God spoke to him: 'Jonah you must go to Nineveh. The people there do bad things. You must tell them to mend their ways.' But Jonah didn’t want to go to Nineveh, so he ran away and boarded a ship. God then raised a great storm as a sign of his anger with Jonah. The sailors, realizing that Jonah's disobedience had caused the storm, threw him overboard in an attempt to save their ship. God sent a whale to swallow Jonah and he lived for three days and three nights in the belly of the whale. Jonah was so grateful to God that he had saved him that he promised to do whatever God asked. God heard him and told the fish to spit Jonah out onto dry land. Then Jonah went to Ninenveh and preached to the people God’s message. The people believed the message and changed their ways and Nineveh was saved.
