    JONAH & THE WHALE by Marti & Rania Barry Mongiello

    JONAH & THE WHALE by Marti & Rania Barry Mongiello

    We wrote and narrated this book because someone backed into mom's car one day (Stormy) and damaged her radiator so that the air conditioning would not work. As she drives two, to 2 1/2 hours per day, she was sweating in her business attire in the summer sun and I told her, "honey, why don't you be like Jonah and ride in my blue whale?" I own a big Chrysler 300 and we call it the whale. So this book became a PUN to have fun and celebrate my wife within my eternal love across the universe and time-space memoriam. Nothing can ever remove this marker and the love of Rania Barry Isabella Mongiello for mom!
