	abstract = {Children’s literature has always been a vehincle for transmitting values to young readers, including gender stereotypes. As nothing in education is neutral, including the text used with students, this study aims to identify how gender is stereotyped in Ishii Mutsumi’s children’s story “Watashi wa Oneesan”, found in the Japanese language texbook Kokugo for 2nd- graders in elementary school. This literary criticism research uses qualitative methods with a feminist perspective. Data in words, phrase, speeches, events, and illustrations of the main character’s actions were then analyzed using the content analysis techniques with a feminist perspective to conclude. By analyzing the main character, gender stereotypes in the story are found. Those stereotypes relate to occupational segregation, family responsibilities, and othe gender stereotypes. By disclosing the gender stereotypes in “Watashi wa Oneesan”, it is clear that in this story, 2nd-grader elementary school students were taught, explicitly and implicitly, how to act, speak, and choose things based on their gender. Therefore, it is crucial to minimize gender stereotypes and establish equitable gender norms and attitudes in early childhood so that children can learn how to act, speak, and choose wisely as human beings. },
