Picture Book Neighborhoods - GO

 I've rearranged the sub-sections of this neighborhood a bit, going back and forth between fiction vs. nonfiction, or arranging by different types of machines. I've had this organization for a while and will probably stick with it. Pretty much anything in this section circulates, although there are definitely popular authors or series (even if those go out of print very rapidly, like Sciesczka's Truck Town).

The general GO section, without subheadings, includes all of the stories and informational stories about vehicles. A few that could technically go in a separate section are included here to stay together by author and farm machines, including tractors, are in the Community/Farm books.
