Sometimes, though, being too proud of outside beauty can blind a fish, or a child (or even, heaven forbid, a parent) to the beauty people hold inside. That's the lesson of this simple tale, imported from Switzerland. It's a useful one for future sneaker and designer clothing shoppers, for rainbow fish--and for quieter, plainer minnows, too.

 Rating: - I'm Conflicted, but My Daughter Loves ItMy daughter has always loved this book, and it's beautiful illustrations are no doubt why. The moral of the story is that if you are greedy and selfish you will also be lonely (not unlike the message Scrooge learned one christmas eve). The author took it a bit too far, in my opinion, when all of the fish see Rainbow fish sharing with the little blue fish, and every fish swims over and demands a shiny scale.

While I realize that some people feel as though Rainbow Fish feels he must share his beautiful scales to be liked, he also experiences how great it feels when you share your "gifts" with others. As I explained to my students - we ALL have gifts - and we have hundreds of "choices" each day in which to use and share our gifts. Rating:  - Forget those negative reviews! This is a nice book about sharing!This book has a nice message, and I am looking for further Rainbow Fish books. I was shocked to see the negative reviews so prominently displayed on Amazon. To those who think the Rainbow Fish is "giving away his identity, or that part of himself that is unique" you are missing the fact that this is a PARABLE, not to be taken literally. Obviously a fish cannot really take off and share scales. Folks, the story is a METAPHOR for sharing your desirable possessions with others. It is not suggesting ... Read More Rating: - Wonderful Classic!This book is one of my favorites to read to my preschoolers...it has lessons in it that are universal...how to get along...how to share...how to be a good friend...just to name a few. Highly recommended!!!! Rating: - We love itThis is the original Rainbow Fish story which is a simple moral tale designed for very young children. The Rainbow Fish is beautiful, but arrogant and selfish. He has to learn that superficial qualities such as beauty and wealth cannot be valued over friendship and happiness. It is at best an oversimplification to say this is a book about sharing, and I cannot agree at all with the reviewers who claim it is about being forced to give up one's unique identity in order to fit in with the crowd. ...
