Summary
In this exciting new adventure, Rainbow Fish is torn between his newfound friends and a lonely striped fish who is not allowed to join the group because he lacks a shiny scale. When a dangerous and hungry shark suddenly appears, Rainbow Fish must decide: Should he risk losing his new friends - maybe even his life - for the little stranger? The sequel to the bestseller “The Rainbow Fish” is now available in a glittering board book edition for the very young. “The gently implied themes of sharing and friendship in the first story are expanded here to include courage”.–“School Library Journal”.

Critics Review
”…pretty pictures–pastel watercolors peppered with holographic foil-stamp overlays that glimmer and gleam…“– “Publishers Weekly”
“The green-blue-purple illustrations have a luminous, underwater feel, and the fishwith colorful, sparkling scales, puffy lips, and big, expressive eyeslook quite sympathetic. This simple book, short and sweet, will be a hit with preschool students of ethics as well as fans of the first glittering book.”– “Kirkus Reviews”
