The Rainbow Fish

For the youngest readers, the board book edition from the New York Times bestselling Rainbow Fish series.

Discover the award-winning book about a beautiful fish who finds friendship and happiness when he learns to share. Rainbow Fish, with his iridescent scales, is the most beautiful fish in the whole ocean. But since he is also vain and proud, he becomes more and more lonely over time. Then he realizes that you can’t win friends through beauty. He overcomes his pride and begins to distribute his glitter scales to the other fish.

The Rainbow Fish, original published in 1992, is an international best seller and a modern classic.

A delightful tale.

The delicate watercolors of underwater scenes are a perfect foil to the glittering scales that eventually form a part of each fish's exterior. This is certainly a story written to convey a message, but in its simplicity, it recalls the best of Lionni. Besides, what three-year-old doesn't need reinforcement about sharing?

Will fascinate preschoolers.
