Baby's first book

What's happened:

We are recalling Baby's first book (boys edition) Cloth Book as small parts have been found in UK editions sold between August 2008 - December 2009, presenting a choking hazard to children under 3 years old.  The small parts are caused by the dinosaur spots coming away on the fifth page of the title due to the stitching perforating the shiny plastic green fabric.

As we take the safety of our customers children very seriously, we are asking you to discontinue use immediately.

The Batches affected are one with no batch number on the tag, which was available on the market between August 2008 - December 2009, and Batch 90594 which was available on the market between August 2009 December 2009.

What you should do:

To identify which products are affected the relevant Batch number can be found on the bottom of the packaging on the top line, reading JFMAMJJ SOND/09 90594

It can also be found on the tag of the cloth book on the very bottom line reading 90594
