Therefore, the approach used in Behavioural Cognitive Therapy can guide children to identify problems and solve them approriately. In addition, children also experience problems in their lives and these need to be resolved in order to form mental and physical health. Children also face problems in their lives and these need to be resolved in order to develop good mental and physical health. Most of the time, children interact with the community, such as family members, teachers, neighbours and peers when they are at school or at home. This will indirectly cause them to face problems which can interfere with their daily activities. Therefore, studies on children’s novels that won writing competition will be done so that problem solving methods in children’s reading materials could be used to educate readers. This is due to the fact that novels could have a deep impact and influence on readers, including children. Hence, the children’s novel entitled “Sahabat dari Marikh” is chosen because this novel is the latest novel published in 2020 and it also won the Space Science Novel Writing competition in 2014.

Therefore, it is appropriate to conduct a study on this novel in order to fulfil its purpose of educating and advising the society.
