Jonah and the Whale: The Brick Bible for Kids

By Brendan Powell Smith

The dramatic story of Jonah’s attempt to run from God’s instructions is delightfully illustrated in LEGO dioramas in this charming children’s book.

Jonah was a stubborn man. When God called on him to preach repentance to the Ninevites, Jonah wasn’t interested. After all, Nineveh was one of Israel’s greatest enemies. So Jonah decided to run from God’s call—but he didn’t make it very far. While aboard a ship sailing away from Nineveh, God sent a terrible storm that threatened to sink the ship. The crew, knowing God was angry with Jonah for disobeying him, threw Jonah overboard. But instead of drowning, Jonah was swallowed by a great whale. Would Jonah repent and be saved, or face a perilous demise?

In this edition of The Brick Bible for Kids, Brendan Powell Smith brings this incredible story of redemption to life in meticulously crafted LEGO dioramas. It offers a creative and engaging way to share this timeless tale with children.
