Ender’s game by Orson Scott Card is a science fiction novel that takes place in the future and involves a kid named Ender, the protagonist of the story. He is sent to battle school to defeat the buggers (the enemies) with many other kids who are put through lots of challenges. The government has picked Ender who is 6 years old and is a third child, his older siblings were not selected by the government because his sister, Valentine, is too kind and compassionate while his older brother,Peter, is ruthless and hot-tempered. Ender is both a monster and a hero because he’s half Peter and half Valentine.

At the beginning of the story, Ender hated Peter for bullying him and his sister Valentine. His hate for Peter by the end of the book, however, seems to have changed, “Back and forth across the ansible Ender and Peter spoke, with Peter pouring out the stories of his days and years, his crimes and his kindnesses. And when he died, Ender wrote a second volume, again signed by the Speaker of the Dead” (Card 323). Moreover, Ender also chose to forgive the Buggers. Even though they were enemies, Ender tried to make peace, “And always Ender carried with him a dry white cocoon, looking for the world where the hive-queen could awaken and thrive in peace. He looked a long time” (Card 324). Ender worked to repay the Buggers since he had destroyed their entire species. He was able to forgive the buggers for attacking Earth and kept the Bugger’s civilization going, and was also able to forgive Peter for treating him and Valentine so

  First, the exposition introduces us to the setting which is a future Earth under attack from aliens called Buggers and also to the protagonist, Ender, a boy who displays both intelligence and a potential for violence. Ender is an ordinary boy who lives with his mother and father who lives in the futuristic world where the earth is under attack from aliens called Buggers. When Ender self-defends himself from bullies, people notice intelligence and violence in him. For this reason, the higher-ups recruit Ender to Battle School where he is trained for the Bugger Wars. This background

Ender Wiggin was a timid boy who wanted to have his brother and parents to love him. Prior to joining the Battle School, Ender did not have the belligerence that he would soon possess. He did not want to be like Peter, so

Viktor E. Frankl (who is he) once said “When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves.” This quote suggests that sometimes things are out of one’s hands, and you must change your perspective to make a positive outcome of the situation. In Orson Scott Card's “Ender's Game”, the violent and manipulative environment that surrounds Ender leads him to become a cynical and jaded character. This demonstrates that children should be protected from such environments to preserve their innocence.

“Human beings are free except when humanity needs them. Maybe humanity needs you. To do something. Maybe humanity needs me—to find out what you're good for” describes that each person has a purpose in society (23). In Orson Scott Card’s novel Ender’s Game, a young boy named Ender Wiggin is chosen to fight an alien race called “the buggers” because he has the greatest traits in order to become a successful military commander. Ender Wiggin is an innocent boy, whom everyone seems to have a problem with due to the fact they are jealous of him. He feels this is unfair and soon realizes what he does is beneficial to humanity. Ender Wiggin changes his view of things when he goes to battle school, he learns that every person really is a tool in society.

Ender has been made an easy target because he is an outcast. His character is a smart boy who is constantly being bullied for something that can't be controlled by him. “No, no, I don't want your help. I can do it on my own, you little bastard, you little third” (Card 2). Ender is described from his brother Peter not important. That Ender is just a third kid and nothing else is important. Peter calls Ender a bastard only because Ender is smarter than Peter and Peter wants to be the smart perfect child.

In the early pages of Ender's Game, Peter was on top of Ender, while playing a game of Buggers and Astronauts. Peter loses his cool nearly killing Ender. “Ender could not speak; the breath was being forced from his lungs. Peter might mean it.” (12) Peters hatred for Ender goes out of control as Peter nearly suffocates his own brother. In

Ender Wiggin was unlike most of the children in his school. He was known as a "third", the third child in his family. He, like both his brother and sister, had a monitor in the back of his neck, so the military could see what they did. Ender had his longer than his siblings and because of this, Peter, his brother, hated him. He constantly threatened him and picked on him and at school, the kids verbally harassed him. He got so fed up with it that one day, he beat up the main bully, not stopping until he was lying on the floor, weeping and in his own blood. Ender didn't want to do it but in his mind, it needed to be done. Valentine, his sister, loved him, despite everyone else's opinions. She was constantly sticking up for him and

At the beginning of the novel, Ender was a shy, lonely 6 year old. He was scared and unaware of what he was capable of doing. Ender didn’t realize how much power he had in his own hands. He was most afraid of his older brother Peter. He does not want to be anything like Peter.

Ender is six when he is taken to the battle school, and once he get there he is contently in simulation battle in the battle room or play games on his desk when he in the barrack. This is like in Carr’s essay where you are on the internet contently skimming article. He is competing in Battle with his team in the battle room at any time of day or night, and on his own desk computer playing a game when he is not fighting battle. . Ender is contently monitored without his knowledge in whatever he does. Ender is contently isolated from making friends with other children at the battle school. Every time he get close to someone on the army he commanded, Ender is transferred to another army where he know nobody. We he start try to make friends he is move again and again. This is done so he will concentrate all his energy on how to get better in each battle simulation that is develop by Colonel Graff and Mazer Reakham for Ender to compete in without Ender knowledge. As the battle get more and more difficult, like when Ender squid has to go up against two squids at the same time, but Ender always fines a way to win by figuring out the pattern in the Battles and using them to his advantage over his opponent. This isolation from

Ender is the most innocent-looking, sweet little boy ever. But he is more correctly a genius, bad to the bone soldier that could ever be chosen for the program. As for Peter, Ender’s brother, he’s a terrifying monster… until he thinks no one’s watching. One night, after tormenting Ender, he thought the little boy was asleep. “I’m sorry,” He said. “I'm sorry, I know how it feels. I'm sorry, I'm your brother. I love you.” You really can’t judge anyone in Ender’s Game by what they do, you need to know more because they always turn around and do something completely out of their character. I also learned that your best friends are the one’s you can count on one hand. Ender trusts so few people, and he’s right to. His sister Valentine, his Launchy friends Alai and Shen, and his Salamander Army friend Petra are Ender’s trustworthy friends. Those are only two of many different lessons one can learn from Ender’s

Ender is a young boy that is very talented coming from a well known family. His mother, father, sister, and brother live on the planet considered earth, however, because the world is at stake he has been sent to space to train for war.“Battle School is where the best and brightest are trained to be military commanders through participation in intricate war games.” “I'm crazy," said Ender(Chapter 8). "But I think I'm OK(Chapter 8). Ender is not letting these fears and obstacles get in his way of achieving his goal as a commander and his understanding of what and why he was chosen to be in battle school so early. Based on the quote as they train him in the different direction from the way he used to live and the way they live the grown ups soon come to the understanding that he is intelligent and can be a great help for the battle against the buggers. As they continue to train through different section they become more and more interested into his thoughts tracking his every movement and soon inform him he will play a big part in their mission to save the
