'The Rainbow Fish' is a story about a fish with multiple coloured scales. He friends ask if they could have one each, but he refuses in a rude manner. Soon after he realises that he is quite lonely, so he is sent to the octopus for advice. The octopus tells him to share his beautiful scales with the other fish, so he does and he notices the joy and happiness that comes from sharing. This story is suitable for junior primary students, as it is quite simple and has nice bright pictures with colourful scales in it. The text is quite simple to understand and students would be able to relate to the story by learning to share with others to make everyone happy and prevent rejection.
This story could be used in an english lesson (e.g. doing a unit of work on it), or an art lesson (e.g. students can make their own rainbow fish).
