The Scarlet Ibis

In the short story, The Scarlet Ibis, the older brother uses his words and actions to change how the younger brother acts. This younger brother, called Doodle, is not healthy and was not supposed to live past birth. He made it past age 5 and still couldn't walk. This was annoying the older brother who had to drag him around in a go cart every day. Finally, Doodle learns how to walk and more because of his older brothers actions. The older brother still taught Doodle how to walk, but Doodles attitude is really what pushed him to make his brother proud.
