What is the main problem addressed in Jarrell's, The Bat Poet?

Jarrell broaches the problems of being different in a society of people who do not understand. For Jarrell, and for the bat in The Bat Poet, the misunderstood need only observe, record those observings, and communicate with others. The most important way for the bat to find happiness with his "differentness" is to learn to trust the truth of his own perception and to share this truth with others.
