That weight puts him in the 18th percentile for a 12-year-old boy and his height is at the 29th percentile. So, he is within the normal range of the population. His BMI is 16.2 which is healthy. Bear in mind that 12 years marks the beginning of puberty and typically the onset of an impressive growth spurt in males.
