Why it's dangerous
Choking
The glitter varnish finish on the cover of the books is lifting and can be peeled off, generating small parts that can easily detach. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke.
The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
