A review by melanie_reads
The Bat-Poet, by Randall Jarrell, Maurice Sendak
5.0
My rating: 4.5 stars
What a refreshing break from these trying political times. A sweet little bat who likes to wake up during the day (gasp!) trying to find his way in the world by writing poetry about his fellow critters - owls, chipmunks and magpies included!
Heart-warming with a hint of melancholy set against the back-drop of the changing of the seasons and finding your place in the world.
Animal lovers, this book will find its way into your heart.
