Humu: The Little Fish Who Wished Away His Colors by Kimberly A. Jackson

Humu - his Hawaiian name is Humuhumunukunukuapuaa - is a beautiful but shy fish who wishes he was all one color, like his two best friends. Unhappy with the way he looks, Humu swims far, far from home, and asks a wise, magical whale to take his colors away. He would rather be able to blend into the sand. But when Humu returns, his friends help him realize how beautiful his true appearance really is. Can Humu find the wise whale in time to get his colors back?
