I still remember reading Bulldozer when I was in elementary school in the 1950s I read it at least twice. It had me wanting to have a machine one day and be an earth-mover and a builder, which I eventually became. 
It's good to see this new Family Matters on WB. "Children's Books" could be here as a sub-section or in Library as a sub-section, like it is on our online bookstore. Anyway, thanks to the Internet I just rediscovered that wonderful boyhood read;
Bulldozer
by Stephen W. Meader, Edwin Schmidt (Illustrator)
[first published in 1951]
Bill Crane, just out of high school and eager for a job, goes on a June fishing trip with his friend, Ducky Davis, to a lake in the Maine wilderness. More important than the bass they catch is the discovery of a Caterpillar D2 Tractor sunk and abandoned in the lake. How Bill locates the owner and buys the machine, how he and Ducky get it out of the water and make it run, is a tale that will thrill every mechanically minded boy.
Of still broader interest is the story of Bill’s plucky battle to build a contracting business from that modest start. He makes enemies, but he makes loyal friends as well. Willing to tackle any job with his little bulldozer, he clears orchards, digs cellars, moves buildings, plows fields, skids logs, and fights forest fires. Finally, in an exciting climax, he wins an important earth-moving contract against strong and unscrupulous competition.
This is a story of a sturdy machine and a boy with courage, ingenuity, and grit. It could happen in few places on earth except America.

Maybe we can find Bulldozer or other titles by Meader to stock for our bookstore. Boys need these books instead of crap that's pushed on them in school today like Heather Has Two Mommies.
