  2. SETTING

  3. S • There are four main settings. • The first setting is where the book starts out. Earth. It is sometime in the future. Where aliens, called “buggers” have attacked earth twice and nearly wiped out the human race. Ender is American. The book does not state what state he lived in. • The second setting is in a space station called battle school. There kids are trained for battle. Ender gets sent there. He stays there for six years. • The third setting is Eros, a planet the Buggers had built a base on and the human race has captured. There Ender commands the human fleet and destroys the buggers home planet. • The fourth and last setting is at one of the buggers planets. There is a colony there and Ender becomes governor to seek an answer to his question. This is after he destroys the buggers.

  5. CHARACTERS

  6. C • Ender: Ender is the main character of the story. Ender is dynamic. He is six years old and a genius. He is small for his age. Ender is tough and does not fight back directly against bullies. • Bernard is Ender’s first bully. Bernard is static He tries to embarrass him. But Ender embarrasses him with a remark on his desk while signed in as god (a desk is like a portable mini-computer). Bernard is big and a born bully. He is jealous of Ender because Ender is better than him in the battles. He is a minor character.

  7. C • Graff: Graff is a major character. Graff is static. He is an adult. He’s not too tall but round. Graff is the head of battle school. He is very cunning and is unanimous for most of the book. • Bean: Bean is extraordinarily small for his age. Bean is a static character and is very smart like Ender. He is a minor character in “Enders game” but in “Enders shadow” he is the main character. Bean comes into the story after somewhere in two thirds of the book.

  8. C • Alai: Alai is a minor character. But plays a important role in the beginning of the story. He helps Ender make friends with Bernard. He is little bigger than Ender. Alai and Ender become very close friends. A Dynamic character because he is kind because he said “salaam” to Ender after he was the bully.

  16. P • Falling action: where the vents in the story lose action, interest, momentum etc. • After Ender destroyed the Bugger’s home world • When Ender’s friends, the ones that fought with him against the buggers began to go home (from Eros). • When Ender learned he could not go home

  21. THEME AND RESOLUTION

  22. T/R • Theme: Don’t judge a book (this case its people) by its cover(how they look) • Evidence: • Bean is a really smart person even though he is small • “Peter you're twelve old. I’m ten they have a word for people our age. They call us children and they treat us like mice” But then Valentine and Peter end doing stuff that goes into history books. • Resolution: “And always Ender carried with him a dry white cocoon looking for the world where the hive queen could awaken and thrive in peace.”

  23. MOOD • The Mood of the story is that it’s a sad story filled with despair: • “And the despair filled him again. Now he knew why. Now he knew what he hated so much. He had no control over his life. They ran everything. They made all the choices ….. The one real thing, the one precious real thing was his memory of Valentine.” (Page 151)
