The analysis technique in this study uses Linda and Eyre’s (1995) source theory. The results of this study found five dialogues containing the moral value of bravery. Their bravery value emerges when they have to face a dangerous situation and their fear. The characters that reflect the moral value of bravery are Bill, Beverly, and Richie. Besides using words, they also use actions to reflect their bravery value. Bill’s desire to end all the bad things that Pennywise caused and his act of daring to enter the good house is a way he reflects on the value of Bravery. Through research, researchers concluded that building good character should start from moral messages contained in reading materials, TV programs, video content, game playing, and even for all literary works. Thus, character education will grow better because the basis has started from positive moral messages.]]>
