How Does Graff Change Ender's Life

Ender has a lot to think about towards the end of the book. He had became a captain earlier then a lot of the other captains. Ender was a smart kid and his brother Peter was jealous of him because he got accepted to battle school. Ender also had a sister that was sweet and he loved her. Ender is kinda like both Peter and Valentine they kinda are the same in a way. Ender He killed a lot of people but he isn’t anything like peter. He also have a good heart but he’s also isn’t like valentine. He’s kinda mixed with both of them because he is violent but has a great heart.

Ender is most definitely not like Peter. Because of a few reasons like they work for different command stations and Ender is way nicer than Peter.

“Hey third, we’re talkin to you, Third, hey bugger lover, we’re talkin to you.” (Card. 6). In the beginning Stilson (a bully) comes up to Ender with a group of guys. They surround him and start to bully him. At first Ender takes it, then Stilson swings at him, and we see Ender break out of his shell. Ender not only beats him, but we find out he killed him. This is where we see Ender realize what he is capable of. After the fight, we see Ender go back to his quiet self. “Again a blow to the head. Go away Ender thought.I didn’t do anything to you.” (Card. 32). Another group of boys start

Young kids can be easily affected by their surroundings. They learn from the roles of their teachers and their fellow students and peers. This is clearly demonstrated in Ender’s Game, a science fiction novel written by Orson Scott Card. It shows how Ender Wiggin, a very young boy, is put into a position of leadership and what he learns through this experience, Through a computer game, Ender learns that he is a very clever killer. Through his experience as commander, Ender learns that being strict will help him be a better leader and win games. Finally, his experience with Shen and Bernard teaches Ender that having humor will easily allow him to make friends. Overall, Ender’s experience in Battle School teaches him many things about

Another concept that influences the theme of Ender's Game love and hate. The reoccurence of love and hate throughout the book, is repetitive. Throughout Ender's endurance of the Battle School, he interacts with many people, and likewise, many people interact with him. The them of love is proved on page 29, this is when Ender is deciding whether or not to say goodbye to his sister, knowing that she would miss him and that he would miss her. This shows love, because Ender is not only thinking of his sister, but missing her as well. An example of hate in the book is on page 211, this is when Bonzo and Ender are fighting.

The novel Ender's Game expresses that Ender being isolated in multiple situations is the cause the of his lost childhood. Ender's isolation is caused by the characters in the Battle School and the removal of the monitor. All of these situations prevent him from getting close to others. Hyrum Graff indicates that he will isolate Ender before he arrives at Battle School. He does that by telling the launch group Ender is the only excellent mind there, Graff does that to make Ender stand out from the others and to form him into the best

Ender does not want to be Peter, who was a cold-hearted killer. Ender was beginning to understand the buggers and find out their reasoning behind the war, but before he could fully understand, the I.F. made him defeat the buggers without even knowing. It also made Ender upset when he found out that he not only just killed one queen, he killed an entire colony and world of queens. Another situation that also upset Ender was when Ender killed Bonzo. Ender didn’t mean to hurt him, but he had to, for self-defense. “’Why should I want to beat anybody?’ Ender pressed his palms against his eyes. ‘I hurt Bonzo really bad today, Bean. I really hurt him… I knocked him out standing up. It was like he was dead, standing there. And I kept hurting him… I just wanted to make sure he never hurt me again’” (222). Although Ender disliked Bonzo, Ender loved him because when he truly understands his opponent to defeat them, he also cared for them. This not only disconcerted him, it made Ender despise the

These people wanted to manipulate Ender’s natural character by taking him from those he loves, Forcing him to depend only on himself and not need assistance from anyone. While this learned self-reliance looks good for the I.F, Ender will break after being detached from everyone he grew close to during this book. My point is the fact that it changes the way a person behaves, this passage explains how after they completed what they wanted to do (isolate him)he became depressed. I feel that a message the author was trying to send was that no compassion for the way someone else is feeling leads to ruthlessness. The people that were talking about Ender did not care for the fact that they were making a six year old depressed, this ruthlessness changed a shy boy into a sad, lonely

Ender understands that he is being offered a spot in Battle School, but does not know that it is the beginning of isolation for him. In the beginning, Graff had already planned to take Ender with him to Battle School and in order for that to succeed; Graff had to persuade Ender that he is making his family’s life harder. “They look at you and see you as a badge of pride, because they were able to circumvent the law and have a Third. But you’re also a badge of cowardice, because they dare not go further and practice the noncompliance they still feel is right. And you’re a badge of public shame, because at every step you interfere with their efforts at assimilation into normal complying society” (23). Ender’s isolation games begin with these words.

In the beginning of the book Ender gets his monitor removed and gets into a fight. The way he handled the fight is what caused colonel Graff to offer Ender to join battle school. In the start of battle school, Ender got picked on a lot, until he killed Bonzo, he was promoted to commander, commanding his own army, he defeated a lot of other armies in the school. In the commanding part of the book, he was getting stressed and losing sleep, he went back to Earth because he didn’t want to be in battle school anymore, then his sister convinced him to go to Eros to train for the bugger war, when he was playing simulations of a bugger invasion, he finally defeated the buggers and Graff told him that the games were actually real, not simulators. After he beat the buggers, another war started on Earth, his sister met with him where he was and told him that he should be governor at another planet and went around to find a new planet for a new era for the buggers.

Firstly, once Ender arrives at the Battle school, at the age of only six years old, he initially faces many difficulties with assimilating into his launch group, along with the other children, "The other boys talked and joked and bragged and laughed. Ender kept his silence. He toyed with the idea of trying to be like the other boys. But he couldn't think of any jokes, and none of theirs seemed funny. Wherever their laughter came from, Ender couldn't find such a place in himself."

At home Ender's surroundings include his parents, his brother; Peter, and his sister; Valentine. Peter is obnoxious, rude, and an extremely violent character. His jealousy of Ender's superior intelligence often makes him bully Ender physically as well as psychologically torturing him ( telling him he is a third). Yet at the end of the day Peter just wants to be a leader and he

Ender can either run from the past or learn from it. Every choice Ender makes throughout his life has a negative impact on him because of fear and Colonel Graff. Now, Ender obtains a chance to make a decision on his own with no repercussions. Once Ender finds the buggers a new home he will be able to accept his past and face the future head

Ender was the third child. He has Peter’s toughness and Valentine’s smarts and gentleness. As far as we’ve gotten in the book we see how Ender does not mean or want to hurt anyone, but he ends up killing Stilson and Bonzo. Both Ender and Peter want some of the same things such as ruling the world. Ender does think he is the same as Peter.

In the book Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card, it starts with ender in school and being made fun of. After he beats up a bully, he goes home to deal with his brother Peter who also bullies him because Ender is a better specimen than Peter was. But what no one expected was that a representative from the military came to invite Ender to Battle School up in space. Ender accepted and went to live up in Battle School for years to come. At first, Ender was hated for being such a talented student at the age of six but was soon respected after he was able to beat all the other armies with just a bunch of little kids. Ender became the best soldier at Battle School and was moved up to Command School where he would learn to command
