My coworker, after this book was read during kids' story time: "Everyone in this book needs to grow up, and either get their own bling or get over their jealousy. Rainbow Fish shouldn't need to dim their awesome, shiny self, just to make everyone else feel better."
I haven't looked at this book the same since.
