Some of the dolls' arms and legs can come off and may cause choking in young children. The "L'il Bonnie" dolls are seven inches tall and the "Beth" dolls are four inches tall.

The dolls were imported from Hong Kong by Lovee Doll Company and approximately 1,000 dolls were sold in Rite-Aide stores for about $5.00 in late summer of 1988. Consumers should take the dolls away from young children immediately and return them to the nearest Rite-Aide store for a full refund of the purchase price.
