Rainbow Fish and the Big Blue Whale

Rainbow Fish and the Big Blue Whale by Marcus Pfister (Author), J. Alison James (Translator)

The rainbow fish are having a good life, swimming around and eating krill. Then a big whale comes by. One fish freaks out because the whale is watching them and eating krill. He gets the fish to scurry away. The whale doesn't like that and tries to teach them a lesson. They end up in a cave and the krill are scared off. Another fish then talks with the whale and they become friends. Moral of the story, don't freak out with big different animals. It feels very basic.

The Rainbow Fish

The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister translated by J. Alison James

The rainbow fish has beautiful glittery colorful scales. Other fish ask for one, but the rainbow fish does not want to share. He ends up miserable and alone. Finally he learns to share and gives away all his scales, but finds himself much happier.

The pictures do have pretty sequins that glow. The story is ok.
