The Clear Quran® Tafsir For Kids - Surahs 1-9 (Hardcover)

What makes this translation unique is that it has been edited by kids, for kids. Dr. Khattab has worked diligently with a team of students (mostly grade 2-5) to identify difficult words and replace them with easier ones that carry the same meaning. As for the words they couldn’t replace, they are explained in the glossary, along with the Arabic terms used in this book. With the help of qualified Islamic and public school teachers and professional editors, they made sure that the translation is accurate and accessible.

The last volume which contains most surahs taught and memorized by kids was released 1st then working backwards to eventually the last of the series to complete the 4 volume set.
