First Quran Stories

Narratives from the Quran, including accounts associated with the Prophets Nuh and Yusuf, are retold here in short form for young children. The language is kept simple and the tone plain, so a child can follow each account without an adult needing to pause and reframe every sentence. Illustrations accompany the text throughout. The retellings stay close to the outline of the accounts as they are traditionally presented, and serve as an early introduction for families who will go on to study the sources themselves. Before choosing this one: • Well-known Quranic accounts presented in short, readable form • Vocabulary pitched at children hearing these stories for the first time • Illustration accompanying each retelling • Intended as an introduction alongside, not in place of, further study Suitable for Muslim families, home Islamic education and teachers introducing these accounts to young pupils, published by Penguin Publications and available from Boipoka.
