Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card is about a boy named Ender Wiggin. When he is 6 years old he is taken from his home to go train in a place called Battle School to fight aliens, or “buggers”. He learns to command an army and plays games to train for the battle against the buggers. When the game is over, Ender learns it isn’t a game at all and they have won the war against the buggers. Two themes in this books are “Life isn’t always going to be fair”, and “Make the best of what you have.” These two themes are in the book because Ender has to deal with having a horrible army to train and the teachers aren’t fair to Ender at all.

The biggest similarity between the book, and the movie is the theme. The theme in both the book, and the

In the beginning of Ender’s game, we are introduced to Ender Wiggin. Ender Wiggin was a shy kid who was unaware of all of the possibilities he had. He starts to become a stronger more mature boy and soon enough realizes all the power he posses. He has an older brother named Peter, and an older sister named Valentine.

What could be better than a six year old boy killing two people, going to battle school, becoming a commander and killing an entire species? And he did all that by the time he was 13 years old. There’s a little bit of a difference between the book Enders game and the movie Ender Game. In the book Ender Wiggins was 6 years old and by the end he was 13 but in the movie he stayed 16 the whole time.

A huge part of the theme of Ender's Game is saying that life is just a game. This is proved by the concept that Ender has to succeed through different 'levels' of life in order to achieve what the battle school has set out for him-killing the buggers. This is proved by the quote,”-Because most boys in this school think the game is important for itself, but it isn't.

The symbols of this main idea is the armies, friends, enemies, and leaders that Ender comes in contact with in the Battle School. All of the friends, enemies, armies, and leaders that Ender meet are all part of Ender

Would you be able to command a whole fleet when you were 12 years old? When Ender was 6 years old he was taken by the International Fleet to help in their fight with the buggers, an alien race that had attacked Earth many years before.

He is tricked, isolated, and attacked, but they claim he needs this in order to win. In the end he ends up defeating the buggers and killing their whole species, while thinking it was still a game. He then spends the rest of his life searching for a home for the buggers as well as helping the humans adapt to the new colonies. The book Ender’s game was much better than story
