Hazard

The seam on the bunny's left hind leg can open, exposing a plastic squeaker toy contained inside a cloth bag, posing a choking hazard to young children.

Remedy

Consumers should immediately take the recalled bunny books from children and either discard them or return them to Bookspan. Consumers will receive a full credit on their book club account. Bookspan has directly notified purchasers of the product recall by mail.

Incidents & injuries

Bookspan has received one report of a 4-month-old infant who began to choke on the plastic squeaker. The parent noticed the infant beginning to choke and cleared the squeaker from his throat.
