EXPLANATION  

A novelist named James Hurst has a very famous short story called "The Scarlet Ibis". This short story was first published on July 1960 in The Atlantic Monthly. “The Scarlet Ibis” won the Atlantic First award. This story is included in the classic American literature which is still often republished and usually used in high school anthology or library collections.

Ibis scarlet is a representation of Doodle. It is a small, fragile Ibis scarlet like Doodle. The Scarlet Ibis is an unknown bird where it came from. Just like Doodles that are not considered in their environment, are likened to birds that do not know their origin.

A Glimpse Story of The Scarlet Ibis Story

The story is written in the perspective of a man named "Brother" who tells the life of his younger brother, William Armstrong. Armstrong was nicknamed "Doodle". Doodle was born as a weak child. He was ill very often. His family did not expect him to live because of his birth defects. The Armstrong family even has a small coffin to prepare for his death. They chose the dashing name 'William Armstrong' because it would look good on a tombstone.  

Doodle survived, but for most of his childhood, he could not move or respond to his environment. Brother also has a plan to kill him with a pillow. When Brother finally witnessed Doodle's corpse, he noticed a physical similarity between Doodle and the red ibis. They both have broken necks and red blood coming out of the mouth. From here, the ibis scarlet becomes a symbol of death.
