Amazon.com Review:
If you read this very popular book just before bed, and the light is still on in the hallway, you can make the rainbow scales glitter on the page, and realize why the Rainbow Fish was so proud of his beautiful decoration. Sometimes, though, being too proud of outside beauty can blind a fish, or a child (or even, heaven forbid, a parent) to the beauty people hold inside. That's the lesson of this simple tale, imported from Switzerland. It's a useful one for future sneaker and designer clothing shoppers, for rainbow fish--and for quieter, plainer minnows, too.

I was vulnerable pre-school student when The Rainbow Fish was originally released. Our teacher was excited, it was a new release, included beautiful images, and she thought it would convey a valuable message. I am currently a university student and feel that it is important for parents to understand how this book damaged my social life. The book basically brain washed me into thinking that if I give other children nice things, they will be my friends! The main character has beautiful rainbow scales ... Read More

This book is worse than bad, it is potentially damaging. The notions it teaches are akin to those believed by people who suffer from a Self Sacrificing schema. That is, if I keep giving and giving and giving, maybe someday people will love me and meet my needs. The only possible use I would have for this book is to provide an example for Self Sacrificing people to see that this strategy is self defeating. In a nutshell, the message is: give away your most prized possessions to any random acquaintence ... Read More

This book starts out talking about a beautiful fish with shiny scales, who refuses to give his scales away, when asked to by a random smaller fish. Because of his refusal he becomes lonely as no one wants to be around him, until gives away his scales and has many friends due to his sharing and generosity.
As a parent I understand the need to teach our children to share, and to be giving. However, The Rainbow Fish goes a bit beyond that, telling a story where you are not able to have friends ... Read More

Someone I love dearly gave it to my son, so I could not avoid reading this to him. If you believe in personal effort to achieve goals for your children, do not read this to them. The message of mediocrity as a goal is painful to articulate to your child, unless you see no hope for them.

I was very happy when I looked up this book and saw the multitude of negative reviews...
This book is purely and simply a tool to program kids and indoctrinate them into a socialist mindset.
It disgusts me that our children are now being taught that being special is bad, and that their goal should be to lower themselves to the same level of the masses... Or that they should expect others to surrender what makes them special for the benefit of the populace.
This is not ... Read More
