    graduation with LeAlan. Also the book didn’t write about the principle thinking that LeAlan and Lloyd was saying all these bad things about the hood that was not true.The reason why I think that there are so many differences in the book and movie is because LeAlan grandmother was singing her favorite song in the movie and the book never said that she was singing her favorite song.

In the book Enders Game‚ a science fiction novel‚ Ender Wiggin is called upon to train in the International Fleet to become a commander and fight against the buggers.
