Overview

An illustrated Christmas poem for adults, weaving the story of Jonah into the Nativity and the hope of redemption. Son of Jonah: A Child's Christmas in a Whale is a lyrical, imaginative retelling of the Christmas story, told through the eyes of Jonah's child and his wry, watchful cat. As shepherds, kings, prophets and tyrants pass through the poem's pages, familiar biblical scenes are re-imagined with warmth, humour and theological depth. Blending Christian poetry, biblical retelling, and Advent reflection, this illustrated book explores themes of loss, hope, mercy and renewal. Jonah's whale becomes not only a place of darkness, but of transformation - a space where Christmas, Easter, and human longing meet. Written for adults rather than children, this is not a devotional manual or a work of systematic theology, but a poetic Christmas meditation, rich in imagery and storytelling. The illustrations invite slow reading and reflection, making it especially suited to the Advent season. At 47 pages, and priced accessibly, it is an ideal religious Christmas gift book - something to be read aloud, revisited, or given as a thoughtful alternative to the usual seasonal fare. Perfect for readers who enjoy: illustrated Christmas poetry for adults Advent poetry and Christian reflection imaginative retellings of biblical stories thoughtful, faith-based Christmas gifts
