Watch and listen to The Rainbow Fish read by Marcus Pfister.
Below is a short extract from the book:
"A long way out in the deep blue sea there lived a fish.
Not just an ordinary fish, but the most beautiful fish in the entire ocean.
His scales were every shade of blue and green and purple,
with sparkling silver scales among them.
The other fish were amazed at his beauty.
They called him Rainbow Fish.
"Come on, Rainbow Fish," they would call, "Come and play with us!"
But the Rainbow Fish would just glide past, proud and silent, letting his scales shimmer."

This book sends a very important message that sharing is caring, and be kind!
Also, who doesn't love all things rainbow!
The illustrations are enchanting, too.
I had no idea until after reading this book that there are actually 15 books in The Rainbow Fish series.😮
Got to get reading those!
🩷 Enjoy Every Moment!! 💚
