Rainbow Fish

REMEMBER YOU CAN COMMENT/REQUEST ME TO WRITE AN ARTICLE ANONYMOUSLY IF YOU WANT. I'LL WRITE ABOUT ANYTHING.

Different Is Beautiful 

The Rainbow Fish is an award-winning children's book drawn and written by Marcus Pfister, and translated into English by J. Alison James. The book is best known for its morals about the value of being an individual and for the distinctive shiny foilscales of Rainbow Fish. DHX Media turned the story into a 26-episode animated television series

Remember the story book Rainbow Fish?  I think that is the best children s book out their because it tells us that even though Rainbow Fish is different then the rest of the fish he's beautiful  Rainbow Fish thinks everyone hates him because he's different  but they don't. At the end of the story Rainbow Fish find outs that everyone wants a piece of his colorful scale.

This story has such a strong message within it. People frown about differences,  but we can't all be the same. It's naturally impossible. We should embrace each and every one of our difference z. We can change the world. So if you have low-esteem because of a "imperfection" remember that, that "imperfection" makes you different; and that is beautiful. Lets be weird. Lets be different. Lets be...ourselves. 


Plot:


The story tells of a fish with shiny, multi-colored scales named Rainbow Fish. He is always fond of his scales. But one day, a small fish asks him if he could have one. Rainbow Fish refuses in a very rude way. The other fish are really upset about his behavior and don't want to play with him anymore.

Feeling upset, his only friend left, the starfish, tells him to go visit the mysterious octopus for advice. Rainbow Fish finds the octopus and asks what he should do. The octopus tells him that he should share the beauty of his scales with his friends.

When he encounters the small fish a second time, the Rainbow Fish gives him one of his precious scales and, seeing the joy of this little fish, feels immediately much better. Very soon Rainbow Fish is surrounded by other fish requesting scales and he gives to each of them one of his shiny scales.
