I wasn't that young when I first read it but I don't think it did anything but help me deal with my isolation and such. Ender's Game is probably one of the only OSC books that is appropriate for a 10 year old I think. I'd suggest giving it a try and see how he likes it.

My favorite thing about the last three books was Jane and I would love to see another book where the Descolada people spread some type of virus all through the planets inhabited by humans, and the only way to save humanity is for us to find a way to use the virus to combine ourselves with some other species (I'm not sure which species yet;-). I'd love to see OSC write this but if he won't I'd be happy to.

The reason Bean figures all that stuff out is because he is much much smarter than Ender is. Altho the over maturity and geniusness of the children in OSC's stories is one thing I kinda dont like it really worked in this book because Bean is not normal in the least, unlike Ender, he is geneticly enhanced!
