With his coat of sparkling scales, The Rainbow Fish was the most beautiful fish in the sea. He was so proud of his remarkable scales, in fact, that when another fish asked to have one, The Rainbow Fish refused - and soon found this selfishness left him feeling very much alone. But as The Rainbow Fish is about to discover, the best feeling of all comes from sharing the things you care about the most!
