The Bat-Poet - Randall Jarrell, Maurice Sendak
The little brown bat stays awake when the other bats sleep, and when the weather cools and they move to the barn he stays on the porch, listening to the mockingbird and wishing he could sing, too. He can't carry a tune, but he finds he can describe the world around him with words. Does that make him poet? And will anyone else want to hear his poems?
