One day, a little blue fish followed after him. "Rainbow fish wait for me. Please give me one of your shiny scales," he said.

The Rainbow fish said, "Get away from me!" The little fish was so upset he told all his friends. From then on no one would go by the Rainbow fish.

The Rainbow fish was lonely. He asked the starfish, "Why doesn't anyone like me?" The starfish told him to ask the wise octopus.

The Rainbow fish told the octopus, "No one likes me. What should I do?" The octopus said, "Give a glittering scale to each of the fish and you will be happy."

Soon more fish came and asked for scales. The Rainbow fish gave each fish a shiny scale.

Finally the Rainbow fish had only one shining scale left. The other fish said, "Come play with us!" "Here I come," said the Rainbow fish and he was happy.
