Doodle is characterized as physically weak, sensitive, and dependent on his brother. His brother is shown as both caring and frustrated by Doodle's limitations, leading to both compassion and moments of cruelty. Their relationship is complex, marked by both love and struggle.
Doodle is not given a name right after his birth because his parents were unsure if he would survive due to his fragile health. They waited to see if he would develop and grow stronger before giving him a name.
It's a struggle for existence because the animals have to do many things to survive
The scarlet ibis relies on a healthy environment with suitable habitat, food sources, and nesting sites for survival. Changes in the environment, such as habitat loss, pollution, or climate change, can impact the availability of resources and breeding opportunities for the scarlet ibis, ultimately affecting its ability to survive and thrive in the wild.
It wouldn't be smart because if the have the same father( brother and sister) they would be more likely to have mutations or serious health problems. Like when you breed brother and sister cats they have double paws. I would ask a vet or animal specialest. That would be your best bet.
Yes, but I would not be the one to ask on the requirements for their care. Being an insect-eating bird, it may not be the best species for a domesticated aviary. Information on buying tanagers can be found at singing-wings-aviary.com. They often sell blue, opaline, and yellow-breasted tanagers.
Doodle is the most dynamic character in the story, since he provides most of the plotline. The narrator (brother) would probably not be considered the dynamic character, although he has an important role.
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.
I think you may be talking about when Doodle and Brother were at Old Woman Swamp and they were daydreaming about how they would turn out when they were older. They said they would build a house on Old Woman Swamp and pick flowers for a living.
the protagonist would be the narrator because he drives the story forward by pushing Doodle to be a normal brother. Also it can be proven because he changes the most from a selfish brother who wants Doodle to be better for his own good, to a person who later cares for Doodle and realizes the evil in pride.
In "The Scarlet Ibis," Doodle wanted to please his brother and be like other kids despite his physical limitations. He desired to learn how to walk, run, and play as a normal child, which motivated him to try and keep up with his brother's ambitious training program.
Doodle's real name in the Scarlet Ibis is William Armstrong. Brother calls him Doodle because he says he looks like a doodle bug and because no one would ever expect much out of someone named Doodle.
Yes the scarlet ibis is sad, and is super sad and tear-worthy if you have a little sibling that you can relate to the story. It took me a couple days to get the thought of it happening to my brother out of my mind. Would definitely not reccomend it just because of how sad it is. Especially how the main character, Doodle, cries "Don't leave me big brother" but the narrator, Doodle's big brother, just runs away even though Doodle is crippled and needs extra attention to be safe.
the scarlet ibis is sad because the brother has a brother named Doodle and throughout the story he is mean to him and pushing him harder to do things for selfish reasons. such as forcing Doodle to touch his coffin and teaching Doodle to walk because he didnt want a "crippled" brother. Doodle died at the end of the story because his brother pushed him too hard to do thiings such as rowing and Doodle died. what really broke my heart was whenever Doodle would say,"don't leave me big brother." Doodle was only 6 and his brother found him dead during a storm when he was trying to run away from him.
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.
To live with his brother in old woman swamp picking dog tongue for a living. He would marry mama and the brother would marry daddy. They would run and play whenever they weren't gathering dog tongue.
Several events foreshadow Doodle's death. Whenever the color red appears, death is foreshadowed because red is the color of blood flowing out of a body. It is a common literary device. In the story, when Doodle is born, his body is red. There is a "bleeding tree" near the house. The scarlet ibis itself foreshadows Doodles' death when it dies and Aunt Nicey comments that nothing good ever came from a red bird dying. Brother sees Doodle under a red bush just before realizing Doodle is dead. Other events are the gathering storm at the end, because the scarlet ibis died after being blown hundreds of miles out of its habitat by a storm. Doodle's brother makes Doodle touch a small coffin that their father had made when it was feared Doodle would die at birth.
doodle died because of heart failure....he had too muh anxiety and like it said in the beginning he couldn't be too excited, scared, mad, sad etc... in other words too emotional or else he would have heart failure
