Summary
Enrichment books have an important role in the learning process. Based on the results of observations at school, educators have used enrichment books to write explanatory texts for students, but these books have not integrated the content of 21st century competencies. After reading and studying the enrichment books available, they only provide material with assignments that only develop writing skills but have not applied 21st Century skills to learning. Enrichment books are a support or companion in learning which in nature increase knowledge, improve skills and shape the personality of the participants (Afandi and Zulaeha 2017; Septianto and Subyantoro 2016 :). The personality formation of students that can be developed with this enrichment book includes aspects of knowledge, skills, and personality that are integrated with 21st Century competencies that students must master
