Thank you CB.

That sentence is from the back page of a book published in America.

I wonder how the mistake can be made on the back introductory part of the book. (some mistakes or errors can be found, but it is the back page of the book.

So, the mistake should be 'This young readers' edition~~' or 'This edition for young readers.'
