Ditto. A tale is a tale and one cannot differentiate between a talking mirror in the Snow White and the talking donkey, or pink unicorns on Jupiter for that matter.
I see all sorts of assertions made without a speck of proof, Jonah living in the belly of a whale three days is a fantastic tale. Where is your proof that it is a fantastic tale?
It doesn't happen in the real world. It doens'thappen because (1) digestive juices are highly acidic, lethal, and tend to dissolve a body, (2) there is not enough air in the stomach, resulting in suffocation, (3) smooth muscle movements would crush the body, etc.
Now if you insist on flying reindeer and talking mirrors, then we can talk about Jonah too in the same category.
However, you will have to show me either a talking mirror, a flying reindeer or someone who actually, verifiably spent three days inside a giant animal's stomach and lived to talk about it before I move that story out of the fairy tale section.
