Description

Video by: A.A. Ari Laksemi


In English

Without warning, a fierce wind sprang up in Room 21. The book that Luh Ayu Manik and her friends were reading shook and then flew about the room. And from the pages of the dirty, torn and tattered book, horrid demons appeared. Luh and her friends wanted to run away but they couldn't move ... they were like statues. I Wayan and I Made wanted to scream ... but their lips were sealed shut and they couldn't speak.

In Balinese

In Indonesian

Tiba-tiba angin berhembus kencang di kamar 21. Buku yang sedang dibaca Luh Ayu Manik dengan teman-temannya tiba-tiba bergetar dan terbang. Dari buku yang kotor, rusak, dan robek itu keluar raksasa-raksasa yang wajahnya seram. Semua hendak lari, tetapi hanya bisa diam tanpa bisa bergerak seperti patung. I Wayan dan I Made ingin berteriak. Namun, bibir mereka terkatup tidak mampu bicara.

One Saturday, scary demons appeared from the books in Luh Ayu’s private library and said very important fact that has changed Ayu’s mind. Well, that is the bottom line of the second book of Luh Ayu Manik Mas’ series. I really love the series because the idea of having a heroine as the main character of this book, despite the male dominance in Balinese culture. This second book successfully delivers a message that a book is worthy only when it is being read, not kept so neatly in a bookshelf. However, I don't think that the title really represents the content of the book, which tells mostly about the demons inside unread books, instead of how Luh Manik creates a mobile library.

The story of Luh Ayu Manik Mas; Making a Mobile Library, give us a lesson about the important of knowledge for young generation. One media can be used is by using books. The books that collected by Luh Ayu Manik were just kept in the bookshelves. The writer use personification to draw the book condition. Of course, it is effective for the children to understand about book condition.

To create the conflict, the writer use brilliant way, adopt the Bali condition as the heart of tourism object in Indonesia. Using foreigner get grabbed by the robber. As we know that, nowadays, Bali is not safe anymore. Many people across Bali come to this island and some of them does not have any skills. Language that use in this story is so simple. So the beginner reader can easily understand about the story and the pictures that presented in the book also can make the readers attract to read

So, the conclusion, this book can promote the beginner reader to know more about Bali problem, that is knowledge or education

This story tells us about a super hero named Luh Ayu Manik Mas. In her daily life, she is an ordinary student who own a mini library at home. Just like any other milenial youngster, she loves using her smartphone to catch up information or latter news. Every Saturday after having lunch, she usually has a good time reading in her “room 21”, her library. But it was an extraordinary day, because while trying to read an old dull book, surprisingly wind blew and three giants creature pop out from the book. Apparently, they were mad because Luh Ayu MAnik never cleaned and even read the book. She promised to look after all of her books collection even since. Moreover, the next day, she will bring the book to the market as a mobile library. Luh Ayu encourages more youngster to read book as she tries to be kind to the others.
