The Scarlet Ibis by James Hurst?
Brief Plot SummaryDoodle was a brother that seemed "invalid". He was born with a tiny, shriveled body and couldn't walk, run, jump, climb, or fight, all of the narrator's bests interests. In spite of this, when Doodle becomes old enough, Brother decides to teach him to walk. Done with great accomplishment, Brother decides to teach Doodle how to do many other recreational sports before the summer is over and before Doodle will begin his first year of schooling. This task however, takes a little bit longer to complete. One day, in the midst of their training, Doodle and his family hear a loud croaking sound from the lunch table in which they are eating. Stepping outside, there is a sight of a scarlet ibis perched precariously on top of a tree. Seconds later, the ibis trembles down, landing with a thud. It is dead. With this event put to the side, Brother and Doodle head out to Horsehead Landing as soon as lunch is over to practice rowing. The sky quickly turns dark and before they know it, the two are stuck in the middle of a severe lightning storm. Very disappointed that the job the narrator wanted to complete was not successful, he runs home in distress, Doodle lugging far behind. At a point, Brother stops and waits for Doodle. Nobody comes, and when his name is called, Doodle does not respond. Heading back in search for him, Brother finds him huddled beneath a poisonous red nightshade bush. He is bleeding from his mouth and is as limp as could be. It becomes clear to Brother what he had done as he concludes by saying "…I lay there crying, sheltering my fallen scarlet ibis from the heresy of rain."
