Abstract

Literature for children in cyberspace like YouTube is easily accessible by anyone around the world. Unknowingly, it has led to cultural exchange. As a result, there is an exchange from different localities, so that it can enrich the culture of the watchers or listeners. This study aims to look at cross-cultural narratives in literature for children using cyber media with a cyberspace perspective. In this paper, the focus of the research is the children animation entitled “Upin Ipin”. The results show that cyber literature for children contains many cross-cultural narratives, including English, Divaphali celebrations, Chinese New Year celebrations, night markets, and Korean-style haircuts. Its influences, in reality, are shown through the reactions recorded in cyberspace. In the conclusion, cross-culture narration in literature for children does not only affect fictional works, but also in real life.
