The Rainbow Fish

This week at the Portsmouth touch tank we will be reading The Rainbow Fish written by Marcus Pfister. The story is about the most beautiful fish in the sea who doesn't want to share his shining scales. In the end the fish learns that it is better to share and have friends than to have the most beautiful scales. 

We will be holding story time at 10 AM at the Isles of Shoals Steamship Company Dock, 315 Market Street, Portsmouth, NH. Following story time you can make your very own rainbow fish to take home. We will also have a public viewing when we feed our critters at 11:30 AM. 


For more information email Abby at abby@blueoceansociety.org or call the office at (603) 431-0260. 

*Note, the Portsmouth touch tank is open Tuesday through Friday 9 AM to 12 PM and is located at the Isles of Shoals Steamship Company Dock.
