To comply with federal and international safety measures, Britt is armed with a wealth of information from vendors about what materials and chemicals are deemed advisable and inadvisable in children's bookproduction. This knowledge makes Britt and the production team an integral part of the design process. "When someone proposes a product, we try to think of every possible thing that can go wrong," she explains. "Someone might come up with an idea and we'll modify it. We had a product that included bracelets with liquid in their centers. The liquid has a chemical in it to prevent freezing. The bracelets were not meant to be chewed upon, but you never know. So, we opted not to put the liquid in, just to be safe. You really have to look for potential problems. [Production professionals] should receive the applicable test results up-front from vendors and if, for example, something goes wrong, we know the risk of injury has been reduced."
