Studio Fun International is recalling more than 78,000 Trolls slap bracelets included with "DreamWorks Trolls: It's Hug Time!" children's storybooks because of a laceration hazard. 

According to the company, the metal band can wear through the fabric covering of the slap bracelet resulting in injuries. There have been five reports of children receiving cuts to hands or fingers because of the bracelet.

The slap bracelet consists of an inner, flexible metal band wrapped in a purple fabric covering with a pink fabric flower. The ISBN for the book is 978-0-7944-3840-1 and is printed on the back of the book.

The books were sold at book and other retail stores nationwide, book fairs and clubs, and online at Amazon.com, Barnesandnoble.com, Walmart.com and other online retailers from September 2016 through August 2017 for about $13.  

Parents are urged to immediately take the recalled bracelets away from children and contact Studio Fun International for instructions on discarding the bracelet and to receive a free Trolls book.

Studio Fun International can be reached at 800-489-3402 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. CT Monday through Friday or online at www.studiofun.com.
