This is more than just another account of the biblical book of Jonah. Delightful coloring pages complement the retelling. Interactive resources such as discussion questions, crossword puzzle, and word search encourage children to process the account of Jonah while having fun doing it.
--Ava Pennington, multi-published award winning author
The story of Jonah is a powerful way to teach children about sin, how God is a just God and punishes sin, yet offers forgiveness when we repent and say we're sorry. In this retelling of Jonah, these concepts are brought to an elementary-age level in a very practical way perfect for this age to understand.
