The Manhattan Toy Company is recalling about 1,180 "Find the Bear" soft fabric books because a metal grommet used to attach fabric flaps to the pages can detach. If the grommet comes loose, it creates a small part that poses a choking hazard to infants and young children. One report of a grommet detaching has been received, though no injuries have been reported. These books were sold nationwide at specialty retailers and online at Amazon.com, Buybuybaby.com, and Manhattantoy.com between March 2017 and July 2018.
A metal grommet on the pages of the book can break off or detach during use. Because the product is intended for young children, a detached grommet presents a significant choking hazard if swallowed or inhaled.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled books away from children, stop using them and return it to the place of purchase or contact Manhattan Toy for a full refund.
