Priddy "Trucks" Shaker Teether Books Recalled

August 23, 2007
About 35,000 Priddy "Trucks" shaker teether books are being recalled by St. Martin's Press, LLC, of New York, N.Y.

Small pieces of the teether can break off, posing a choking hazard to young children.

St. Martin's Press has received two reports of children biting off pieces of the teethers. No injuries were reported.

The recalled cloth teether book entitled "trucks" has a yellow dump truck on the front cover on a blue background. Attached to the top of the book is a yellow rattle with a green teether attached on the right side of the rattle and an orange teether attached to the left side of the rattle.

The books were sold at Barnes & Noble and other bookstores and retailers nationwide from January 2006 to June 2007 for about $7. They were made in China.

Consumers should immediately take these toys away from young children and contact St. Martin's Press for instructions on returning the product for a free replacement product.

Consumer Contact: For additional information, contact St. Martin's Press at (800) 347-9411 between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's Web site at www.priddybooks.com/recall.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
