Produktbeschreibung
Set against the rugged landscape of late 1800s New South Wales, Australia, Jonah's Whale is a moving tale of family, faith, and survival. Widowed father Joseph faces the daunting task of raising his three sons alone on their isolated family farm. Each son grapples with the loss of their mother, but it is Jonah, the middle child, who is dealt the harshest hand. Born with a severe speech impediment and learning difficulties, Jonah is caught in a world that often misunderstands and underestimates him. Despite his struggles, his story mirrors that of the biblical Jonah, a man called to confront insurmountable challenges, not by fleeing, but by finding strength in faith. Jonah's Whale weaves together themes of single fatherhood, perseverance in a harsh world, and a crisis of faith that looms large over the family. As Joseph and his sons wrestle with emotional isolation and dynamic conflict, the story becomes a testament to the power of resilience and belief. The boys' journey toward healing and understanding, particularly Jonah's, is a moving parallel to the biblical tale of triumph over adversity. Author Lyn Phoenix, a retired speech/language pathologist and assistive technology specialist, brings 37 years of experience working with students who face challenges similar to Jonah's. Her unique professional background, combined with her deep faith and storytelling talent, lends authenticity and heart to this inspiring novel.

Her first novel, The Walk Home, captivated readers with its heartfelt exploration of family and faith, and she is currently working on her next book, The God Nod. Lyn lives with her husband and is blessed with three married children and five grandsons.
