Tiny Bible Tales, a new series of board books, shares the stories of the Bible's bravest heroes. With gentle, rhyming text, this book tells the tale of Jonah getting swallowed by the great whale. And with illustrations depicting these heroic Biblical characters as children, readers can easily put themselves directly in the story.

Little Jonah hears God say,
Help the people to obey.

After Jonah sets sail against God's command, he finds himself in the belly of a great whale. Trapped there for three days and three nights, he learns a valuable lesson in forgiveness.
W. C. Bauers grew up in Alaska and Colorado, and his writing background includes two speculative novels and the Tiny Bible Tales board-book series. Bauers lives in the Rocky Mountains with a knitting maven, three padawan martial artists, and the best rescue in the world. www.wcbauers.com
