The scarlet Ibis

HI everyone. i recently read an interesting book named the scarlet ibis. Let me give you a brief synopsis of the story. The whole story actually revolves around one factor----greed. The story is about a brother who hates his little brother from the minute he was born and showed cruelty towards him. The baby was terribly weak and almost died. His parents decided to name him William Armstrong, hoping that miracles could happen and William could grow up to be a strong and fit man. However, brother detests william and took advantage of his mental regression to trick him and taunt him. He dislikes the name william very much and decided to name william Doodle and that is considered a form of disrespect towards the brother by giving him such a mindless name. The brother also thinks Doodle as a heavy burden and does not find any joy with him despite his calls for fun. The brother was a self centered person who does not care about the welfare of Doodle at all.He only cared about his appearance and pride/dignity. However , brother also showed kindness to Doodle as he brought Doodle to the only beauty he knew-old woman swamp. Brother only succeeded in having Doodle to do things is only because of his pride, his embarrassment to have a mental retard as a brother. Doodle has perseverence and strived to the end with the attitude of never say die. Later on, a scarlet ibis fell below the bleeding tree and Doodle was the first to notice it. He showed his sympathy towards the ibis by carefully burying it. Eventually, there was a strom and brother, caring for his own safety, left Doodle behind and escaped alone.
After reading the scarlet ibis, i felt that it is a very meaningful story that teaches us a lesson. It focus on greed and its consequences/implications and causes. Our language Arts teacher also told us that there is a famous saying in the short story-"I did not know then that pride is a wonderful, terrible thing, a seed that bears two vines-life and death." My personal interpretation of it is that the pride that the brother showed towards Doodle was wonderful and terrible too......

Sorry guys... Due to time constraints, i will have to continue later on... I apologise for any inconvience caused
