Education is an important thing in the progress of a nation, even become the most important role in the progress of human life. The state of a nation is certainly influenced by the education received early on. One of the values of education that needs to be invested early is the value of character education.
Character education is a system of inculcating character values to the citizens of the school including the components of knowledge, patience or ability, and actions to implement those values (Aqib and Sujak, 2012:3). Characters are developed through the stages of knowledge, practice, and habits. Character education is a planned effort in developing character, character or personality embedded in the soul of someone who is based on thoughts, attitudes, actions, and deeds. Character education is an education that develops the cultural values and character of the nation in the students themselves, so that they have and apply these values in their life as members of society and citizens who are relegius, productive and creative (Sulistyowati, 2013:22).

Literary work is the result of a human creation that expresses the thoughts, ideas, understanding, and responses of the creator's feelings about the nature of life by using imaginative and emotional language (Nurgiyantoro, 2007:2). Literary works is one form of art by using language media. Literary works are created through deep reflection in order to be enjoyed, understood, and inspired by society. The birth of literary works derived from the facts of life that exist in society which is then processed and combined with the imagination of the author so that it becomes a work that has a beauty. Children's literature is one of the genres in literary works. Hunt (in Nurgiantoro, 2007:26) defines children's literature by departing from the needs of the child. He argues that children's literature can be defined as a reading book read by a child, which is especially suitable for, and which also particularly satisfies a group of members who are now called children. Thus, children's literature is reading books deliberately written to consume to children, books whose content is in accordance with the interests and the world of the child, according to the level of emotional and intellectual development of the child, and books that can therefore satisfy the child. Murti Bunanta is a child literature writer.
Murti Bunanta is the first Doctor of the University of Indonesia to examine children's literature as a dissertation topic. Research on children's literature has been pioneered since taking Bachelor of Letters and Master's Degree, also at the University of Indonesia. In addition to writing two books on Children's Literature in 1997 and 2004, Murti Bunanta also wrote a book for children. His first book was titled The Youngest Frog (1998). Then she wrote twenty-four (24) books on children's literature with her last book Tiny Boy (2012), all of which are arranged in the anthology of the Folklore Children Series.
This study researchers raised four (4) books written by Murti Bunanta. The first book of The Youngest Frog (1998). This folklore comes from the Kei archipelago located in Southeast Maluku a literary book of children (bilingual: Indonesian and English). This book gets international prizes from Poland, The Janusz Korzcak International Literary Prize. The second book of Molec (2001) is a fairy tale coming from Riau. The third books of Masarasenani and Sun (2006) folklore originates from Papua, published also by Korean publishers: The Choice Maker, and the fourth is Tiny Boy books (2013) the story from South Sulawesi, awarded in USBBY Outstanding International Books (OIB) List 2014 in America. The reason the researchers raised these four books is to look at the writing style of a Murti Bunanta, the similarities and differences in each child story, and represent 24 titles of books incorporated in the Folklor Series Folklor anthology.
There have been several previous studies related to children's literature, including Sugiarti's (2013) study entitled "Child Literature Review" Little Got The Evergreen "Nisrina Hanifah's Work in a Character Education Perspective" on describing the aspect of the literature of children reflected through the structure sentences, language styles, storylines, characters, and themes.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE Theoretically, children's literature is a literature that children read "with the guidance and direction of adult members of a society, while writing is also done by adults" (Davis 1967in Sarumpaet 1976. Thus, literally children's literature is the best literature that they read with the characteristics of different kinds, themes, and formats. Thus, children's literature is reading books deliberately written to be consumed to the child, books whose content is in accordance with the interests and the world of the child, according to the level of emotional and intellectual development of the child, and books that can therefore satisfy the child In a wide range we recognize children's literary works specifically for children of early ages, such as toy-shaped books, baby books, introducing alphabet books, numerical and calculating books, books on concepts and other books that talk about children's experiences that age. Judging from the theme, children's literary works are also very diverse. Actually the theme related to the life of a child, is in the literary work of children: from birth to death and various questions between them, whether it is in general or special sense, brothers fights or divorce dad's beloved mother and of course happy sad happy grief tie it up. According to Sarumpaet (2010:3) understanding children's literature is not as simple as formulating theoretically and practically, precisely because of the belief in the importance of literary engagement with its readers, so in my opinion, to really understand children's literature we have to know what and who is the child. Little do we know that a child is a person who needs all the facilities, attention, encouragement, and strength to enable him to grow healthy to become independent and mature. Therefore, in thinking about children, life, reading, and the various issues associated with it, we need to consciously put it all in the cultural context of children. This means that in understanding, reading, assessing children, we should not use our own cultural context. One of the facilities to support children is children's stories or children's literature.

"Kalian lihat sendiri, inilah si Molek, isteriku yang telah dicelakai orang. Aku telah mengetahui siapa yang melakukan perbuatan laknat tersebut. Aku tidak berniat membalas kejahatannya. Semoga saja mereka menyesali perbuatannya." (Bunanta, 2012:43b) For example, the value of peace love is found in Murti Bunanta's "Si Molek" story. In the above quote Molek was hurt by his sisters and was accidentally rescued by her own husband, Tanura. Tanura told the story to the sisters Si Molek and said they would not demand a reply. From the quote can be seen the value of the peace love that Tanara and Molek have owned because they do not respond to the actions performed by their sisters. The value of peace love must be instilled in children early on as they avoid the hostility and provide a sense of comfort.
"Maaf matahari, aku terpaksa menjeratmu karena aku bersama keluargaku dan orang-orang desa lainnya sering menderita kelaparan. Sebelum kami cukup mengumpulkan sagu dan bahan makanan lainnya, kau telah tenggelam sehingga hari menjadi gelap. Oleh karena itu, kami tidak dapat lagi menokok sagu." (Bunanta, 2011:29c) The honest value quotation is contained in the story of "Masarasenani and Sun" by Murti Bunanta. Honesty is done by Masarasenani because it has ensnared the Sun. This is done because families and people who live in hungry villages. Masarasenani's honesty towards the Sun is also based on Masarasenani's sense of belonging if the Sun is not released from its snares. The value of honesty becomes an important thing that is instilled early on in children.

"Mendengar cerita dan keluhan Masarasenani, matahari berjanji akan merubah sifatnya. Ia akan berusaha untuk adil dalam membagi waktu agar orang sempat mengumpulkan bahan makanan sehingga tidak terjadi kelaparan." (Bunanta, 2011: 31c) In the excerpt of Murar Bunanta's "Masarasenani and Sun" stories there is a communicative value. Communicative value occurs in a condition where it can be interconnected and actions that push themselves to produce something useful for the surrounding. This is experienced by the Sun. After listening to the reason Masarasenani entrapped him in the end he intends to change his nature and begin to be fair in dividing the time so that people no longer starve because of his nature.
"Sepeninggal kakak-kakaknya di pulau yang sunyi itu si Bungsu Katak mendirikan sebuah pondok kecil untuk tempat tinggal. Dibelahnya waluh kuning pemberian ibunya dan biji-bijinya ditanam." (Bunanta, 2011: 7a) This quote is in the story of Youngest Frog Murti Bunanta's work has an independent value.

By having an independent value Youngest Frogs can survive alone on the island.
