THE MAGIC CODE IN IMRON WAHRID HARITS: THE ADVENTURE OF DINOKI AND DINOKO, 2022

Abstract

This study explores Imron Wakhid Harits's The Adventure of Dinoki and Dinoko (2022) using four primary approaches to children's literature: text-oriented, reality-oriented (mimetic), author-oriented, and reader-response models. The framework that this study is based on was developed by Maria Nikolajeva. In terms of the plot, the movie is centered on a mission to rescue elephants from ivory smugglers, and it follows a home-away-home pattern that is reminiscent of Vladimir Propp's personality. The research establishes a connection between the primary and secondary worlds by incorporating elements of the supernatural with the actual environment of Indonesia. It is a wonderful piece of writing since it contains connections to traditional animal and jungle mythology. According to the findings of the study, the book is a contribution to a contemporary trend in children's reading that integrates learning, socializing, and creative expression. Friendship, moral responsibility, environmental consciousness, and personal development are some of the topics that are emphasized throughout
