This fictional book is about a beautiful fish who doesn’t want to share her scales. She is praised by all her friends and called Rainbow Fish. When her friends begin ignoring her because they think she is being unkind, she understands her mistake and corrects it. She shares one of her scales with each of her friends. I like Rainbow fish because she is big, beautiful and kind at the end. I would recommend this book to all my friends.

Sharing is caring, the fish gets good lesson from keeping those sparkling scales to share them to everyone around and all of them are happy. Sometimes you will get someone give you a gift but sometimes you will get some trouble or shock, the little blue fish gave me friendship's patient and the octopus give me advise from stranger

An excellent fictional story about a fish with the most beautiful scales! This heart-warming story creates a positive message about sharing and the happiness that sharing can bring yourself and others. It also depicts how difficult sharing can be and the impact that sharing can have on friendships. This is a great story to develop communication and language, as well as self-regulation and self-awareness. This book has admirable illustrations and is wonderful for inspiring art work!
