God gives Jonah a dangerous task. He is to go to the great city of Nineveh to tell the people there that they must stop their wicked ways if they want to avoid a catastrophe. But Jonah does not want to do it. “Nineveh? No thank you!” he says and instead boards a ship that is to take him to sunny Spain. Then something unbelievable happens... In the storm, Jonah falls overboard and is swallowed by a giant fish. Will he ever get out?
The tale of Jonah and the big fish is one of the most exciting stories in the Bible for young children. It tells of humans on the wrong track and how in the end, they manage to do the right thing.
