Doodle' Brother was ashamed of Doodle through out the entire book so when Doodle couldn't finish the goal that his brother set for him his Brother was so ashamed that like a child ran away from Doodle. He did not intend to kill Doodle though
No, Doodle was not able to walk by that time. This is how Brother was able to force Doodle to touch the coffin even though he was afraid to. Brother pretended to leave when Doodle refused to touch the coffin but pleaded with Brother not to leave him. If Doodle had been able to walk, he would not have been so dependent.
either doodle, text, or sleep. :)
In "The Scarlet Ibis," the brother is cruel to Doodle because he is embarrassed by his disabled younger brother. He feels ashamed of Doodle's limitations and pushes him to be something he is not, ultimately leading to tragic consequences. The brother's cruelty stems from his inability to accept Doodle as he is.
The narrator shows Doodle the coffin to scare him into pushing past his physical limitations and learning to walk. The visual of the coffin serves as a powerful motivator to push Doodle beyond what the narrator initially thought possible.
Doodle's brother's name is never mentioned. When Doodle addresses him, he simply calls him "Brother."
the brother tried to change doodle cause he wanted him to be normal
Doodle is trying to be normal because his brother, the narrator, wants him to act like a regular child and meet societal expectations of physical and mental abilities. The narrator's desire for Doodle to be normal stems from his own embarrassment and desire for a typical sibling relationship.
Brother should have treated Doodle with more kindness, patience, and understanding. He should have accepted Doodle for who he was and supported him rather than pushing him beyond his limits, leading to the tragic outcome in the story.
Doodle is a fun and creative way to express oneself through drawing. It is typically harmless and serves as a way to relax or pass the time.
Brother forces Doodle to touch the small coffin that his father had made right after Doodle was born when he was not expected to live. Doodle did live and the coffin was stored away in a loft. Brother took Doodle to the loft and made him touch it as if to impress upon Doodle that he was near death and probably still is.
The little brother is Doodle.
