This study also aims at revealing the methods of empowering children used by the author, Enid Blyton. This study is a qualitative research with the content analysis method. The subjects of this study are The Naughtiest Girl Again, The Naughtiest Girl is a Monitor, and Here the Naughtiest Girl!. The data taken are words, phrases, and sentences related to the topic. The researcher becomes the primary instrument of this study, while the secondary instruments are the data sheets. To get trustworthiness of the data, the researcher used four criteria, namely, credibility, transferability, dependability, and conformability.
