That means shopping for one is a booby trap. Add in the fact that many kids this age don't really want to talk to adults about anything important to them and you're stuck fending for yourself. Don't worry! These kids aren't as complicated as they think they are. Here's a simple guide to gifts for 11-year olds that should get you some eye-contact and maybe even a "thanks".
