The tenth book in the New York Times bestselling Rainbow Fish series encourages care and respect for the ocean and its creatures. Rainbow Fish and his friends have only ever heard stories about the nets that come through and take away shoals of fish from the ocean. Luckily, they've never had to experience that danger for themselves. All is peaceful until one day, Rainbow Fish and his friends come face to face with the trawling net. Even though getting caught within the net is scary, Rainbow Fish and his friends are quick to act. With the help of crabs and lobsters nearby, they're able to cut through the net and help everyone trapped within make their great escape. This thrilling addition is a perfect example of quick problem solving and how to lean on one's community in difficult situations.
