As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. No one hurt

    Made Jan 29, 2023, sent to the company Feb 2, 2023, published by CPSC Feb 16, 2023

    The product, in the report: Sound of the Wild: Bugs by Maurice Pledger. Published by Silver Dolphin. ISBN13 9781607102427. Manufactured, printed, and assembled in Heshan City, China March 2011. Conforms to the [REDACTED]. 7963-08. The batteries in it say [REDACTED], I have a picture.

    I got a children’s audio pop-up book from Goodwill. It had dead batteries so I took the old ones out to replace them. One of them exploded in my hand. No injury but definitely hard enough that if it had blown while I was reading the size, I could’ve lost an eye.
