Abstract

The issue of performance anxiety is a significant challenge in building early childhood confidence. This anxiety is represented by the character Dalo who feels insecure and very nervous when he takes turns showing his abilities. This study aims to analyze the role of storybooks "Hore, Dalo Bisa!" as a narrative medium to overcome performance anxiety. The second goal is to identify the values of courage and confidence that are instilled in the narrative. The method used is a qualitative narrative analysis of the storyline, characters, and moral message. The analysis focuses on how stories facilitate the discovery of self-potential and the management of children's emotions. The main source of data is the storybook "Hore, Dalo Bisa!" by Erminawati. It was found that this story was very effective in overcoming Dalo's anxiety by turning fear into courage. The story teaches children that courage is the key to unlocking hidden potential, as evidenced when Dalo manages to discover his talent in urgent situations. This narrative reinforces intrinsic confidence and instills the important message that every child has his or her own best time to develop. This story is an important tool for early childhood teachers to overcome feelings of insecurity and encourage children to try. This message is critical for addressing performance anxiety in early childhood.
