Review by: Rubianti

The theme of the story suits the current ongoing environmental issue. In the beginning of the story, it was explained that terrible things would happen if people keep felling the trees in the forest. Love the environment movement must be started from early age. Using Luh Ayu Manik and her friends as the good characters who had big concern on the forest felling and later gathered together to plant trees in the forest will give the young readers of the book an inspiration which hopefully will encourage them to pay more attention and take good care of the environment, in this case, the forest.

To make it more interesting, the author of the book included 2 demon characters from the Balinese mythology, rangda dan celuluk, which masks were used by 2 of Luh Ayu Manik’s friends to scare away the thieves who felled the trees in the forest.

The main character Luh Ayu Manik, who could chance her appearance to a beautiful woman with super natural power and who fought against the thieves, was meant to attract the children’s attention who read the book about a super hero who saved her friends from the bad people.

Reading the story is like having such an adventure of being a hero that has a power to beat the criminals. Also the story tells us about sincerity, friendship and loves for others. And the most important thing teach us how to care about our environment.

The story started with the scene of the main character, Luh Ayu Manik, having vacation with her friends by a beach. When they were enjoying time suddenly hard rain came and forced them to shelter in "wantilan" around the area. That gives Ayu Manik a chance to check her instagram and found out that there has been a flood. Seeing the news Ayu manik was sad and wondering what might cause the flood. She was convinced that the cause was the deforrestation. When she told about it to her friends they came out with an idea to plant trees to help the forrest healed. On the day as the promised, they went uphill brought many trees to plant. When they got to the forest, they found that it has been destroyed leaving wooden logs scattered. The scene got them angry and yet sad at the same time. Luh Ayu Manik then think they can find who logging the forrest illegaly. So she went to the forest once again to gather evidence about the ilegal logging to be reported to the police. But , their plan didn't go as expected since Ayu Manik forgot her phone at home and her friend's phone was out of battery. But they managed to remember the faces of the criminals. They rushed to report to the police but the police refused to believe them. At the edge of desperation Ayu Manik and her friends planning a prank to catch the ilegal loggers. One of them would disguise as "Rangda" (the demonic form of Durgha Shiva's Sakti). But once again the prank didn't work as planned, in the critical situation that would harm her friends, Ayu Manik transformed into Luh Ayu Manik Mas and saved her friends, as the bonus she also managed to catch all the "villains" and surrendered them to the police.

The story carries great values of life such as love and care about environment that will affect our society in the end. On the other hand it also teaches us hope that the good side will always eventually win.
