This research aimed to reveal the structures of stories written by children as representations of emotional intelligence. It used a qualitative approach and literary psychology. The design of the research was qualitative-descriptive with narrative analysis. The focus of the research was the structures of stories written by children as a means of expressing children's emotional intelligence. The data collection was carried out with the note-reading technique. This research used the data confirmability validation and data triangulation techniques. We used the data analysis techniques through two procedures. The first procedure was to analyze the data during the data collection process and the second procedure was to analyze the data after the data collection process. The research results showed that: (1) Story Facts: there were 11 children’s stories that showed two emotional intelligence in the first and second levels and 29 children’s stories that showed all five levels of emotional intelligence; all of the children’s stories had chronological (straight) plots; The settings were divided into three categories: house as the social setting of family, school as the social setting of school, and playground as the social setting of friendship; (2) Story Means: there were six patterns of titles of the children’s stories, there were two types of point of views namely the first and third person point of views, and the language styles were used explicitly and implicitly; and (3) Themes: there were two types of themes expressing emotional intelligence, namely the themes of emotional intelligence-personality and of emotional-intelligence-social skills.
