Lesson About Whales
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. “Whales can’t swallow people,” the teacher said. “Even though they are large mammals, their throats are very small.” “But Jonah was swallowed by a whale,” the little girl replied. “That just can’t be,” the teacher said. “It’s physically impossible.” “When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah,” said the little girl. The teacher looked down at her, smiled and asked, “What if Jonah went to hell?” The little girl replied, “Then you ask him.”

I thought he was eaten by a big fish and not a whale.

Someguy wins the gold star! The text reads that Jonah was swallowed by a leviathan. This was understood as a "large" creature from the deeps of the waters. It was only later that leviathians became synonomous with whales.

That is just too funny! Wouldn't it be nice if we could be quick thinkers like that and NOT get sent to the principles office.
