Rainbow Fish
Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister is a charming book about the joy of sharing. The beautiful fish is initially reluctant to distribute its shiny scales but in the end, with others' advice, it gives in and feels joy from sharing with others. It can be difficult for children to share and understand why it is important to do so. This book tries to convey the positive aspects of sharing as it can make another happy, which in turn will make oneself happy.

Nicole,
ReplyDeleteI am writing down the name of this book right now! Sharing is a big problem in my household. It does not matter how much I teach them about sharing, it goes in one ear and out of the other one. Have you read this book to anyone in your family? If so, how has it helped?
I guess it can be quite tricky with little ones, especially when they're all living under the same roof. I haven't read it to anyone in my family as I am pretty much the youngest but I have read it to different kindergarten children. They love the book but I am not sure how much of the book they understand.
ReplyDeleteAloha Nicole,
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me of the importance of sharing being a focus for our youngest ones. The disposition of how you get them to do it is very creative as we see in this book, The Rainbow Fish. I've really enjoyed having you in this journey to our masters and I wish you all the best. Mahalo
