Stolz ist er auf seine wunderbaren Schuppen, der Regenbogenfisch. Aber Stolz macht einsam. Nur zögernd kommt er dem Rat des alten Octopus nach und verschenkt seine herrlichen Schuppen an andere Fische. Und siehe da: mit jeder verschenkten Schuppe wird er fröhlicher.
The first book in the New York Times bestselling Rainbow Fish series. 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.

Klappentext
Der Regenbogenfisch ist mit seinem schillernden Schuppenkleid der allerschönste Fisch im Ozean. Da er aber auch stolz ist und nur bewundert werden will, wird er mit der Zeit
immer einsamer. Da bekommt er einen guten Rat. Er überwindet seinen Stolz und versucht, den anderen Fischen Freude zu bereiten. Und er merkt, wie glücklich es macht, Freunde zu haben.
