LEONORA GETS A GREAT NEW JOB AND SELLS BABBO'S BOOKS

After six years of showering tender, loving care on Babbo's Books, owner Leonora Stein is changing careers from book seller to book buyer. Leonora has sold Babbo's to the owners of Park Slope's Community Bookstore, to be operated under the name Terrace Books, and she's now the Book Buyer for the Lower East Side Tenement Museum Shop.

Three months ago, The L Magazine named Babbo's "Best Used Bookstore in Brooklyn." The store's current holdings will be the basis of Terrace's initial inventory. Terrace's collection will be mostly inexpensive used books, some new books, and children's books. Community Bookstore will deliver newly-published books to Terrace Books by bicycle at top speed.

Babbo's book trade and credit system will be continued in a similar form. by Terrace Books, which will honor book credits and gift certificates that Babbo's issued.

The new owners, Stephanie Valdez and Ezra Goldstein, expect to open during the first week in June. They'll throw a grand-opening party that month to introduce themselves and Terrace Books to the neighborhood. Terrace Books is at 242 Prospect Park West, between Windsor Place and Prospect Avenue.

Our best wishes to Leonora, Stephanie, and Ezra.
