===Fiction, translations, and children's books=== In addition to poetry and criticism, Jarrell also published a satirical novel, ''[[Pictures from an Institution]]'', in 1954, drawing upon his teaching experiences at [[Sarah Lawrence College]], which served as the model for the fictional Benton College. He also wrote several children's books, among which ''The Bat-Poet'' (1964) and ''[[The Animal Family]]'' (1965) are considered prominent (and feature illustrations by [[Maurice Sendak]]). In 1957 Jarrell began his translation of [[Goethe]]βs Faust Part One for [[Farrar, Straus and Giroux]]. It was published in 1976. Jarrell translated poems by [[Rainer Maria Rilke]] and others, a play by [[Anton Chekhov]], and several [[Brothers Grimm|Grimm]] [[fairy tales]].
