Abstract
Textbook is a language unit that is very important to understand in written discourse. Textbook are closely related to materials to be taught to students. For this reason, it is important for teachers to be able to understand the material in the textbook before it is taught to the students. Teachers must be able to know whether the textbooks used have been written cohesively and do not cause ambiguity when taught to students later. The purpose of this study is to provide knowledge about grammatical cohesion on reading texts. The research design was qualitative research and used documentation as the instrument to obtain the data. The researcher adopted the theory from Halliday and Hasan to support this research. The researcher analyzed 13 reading texts contained in English Textbook Grade VIII Published by Erlangga. The researcher analyzed the data in some steps, first step is dividing the sentences in each reading text into clauses, second is identifying and classifying cohesion items found in the textbook, third is putting the amount of grammatical cohesion into tables based on its type, and the last is counting the number of grammatical cohesion in the form of percentages. The results of this research showed that there are four types of grammatical cohesion are used in the textbook, namely reference, substitution, ellipsis, and conjunction. From the four types of grammatical cohesion, reference is the most common type of grammatical cohesion that appears in textbook and ellipsis is the type that appears the least in the textbook. So, this textbook is categorized as "good" according to Halliday and Hasan's theory because the percentage result showed 55%.
