Make a splash with this appealing bath book edition of the beloved Rainbow Fish! Sure to be a favorite tub toy, this soft but sturdy little book with its message about sharing is perfect for the very youngest child--at bath time, bed time, beach time, anytime!

The rainbow fish with its 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.

Eye-catching foil stamping, glittering on every page, offers instant child appeal, but it is the universal message at the heart of this simple story about a beautiful fish who learns to make friends by sharing his most prized possessions that gives the book its lasting value.
