If the Scarlet Ibis‚ written by James Hurst was in Doodles perspective the story would be much different. One reason the story would be different is the way people think about the brother. The author says‚ “I’m going to teach you to walk”. In addition this causes the story to be different out of Doodles eyes because the brother is going to push Doodle hard just so he can walk.
