Mr. Mopps' Toy Shop in Berkeley, Calif., announced yesterday that, after six years in business, it had closed "our tiny book shop for the last time," but the story has a happy ending: Mr. Mopps' Children's Books moved just "a few doors up" and is now located at 1401 Martin Luther King Jr. Way, "right next to (and connected to) Mr. Mopps' Toy Shop, on the corner of MLK and Rose."
Mr. Mopps' added that "it's going to be a mess for a bit and we anticipate some growing pains through the transition and as we settle in, but please bear with us--and in the coming year, look out for story times, book clubs and other events! Come say hi! We look forward to welcoming you to our new home."
