A joyous picture book following a young girl's journey through her neighborhood to pick up a community food box, perfect for fans of Last Stop on Market Street and Saturday at the Food Pantry.

Yellow Postcard Day is Taylor's favorite. It's the day her whole neighborhood gets to pick up their community boxes! What will they get? Who will they see? When the line is so long it stretches around the block, Taylor gets worried. Will there be enough to go around? 

Join Taylor and her neighbors this Yellow Postcard Day and celebrate the food, community, and family that make sharing food special.
Savannah Allen is a Nashville-based author and illustrator who never grew out of a love for children’s books. As a biracial creator, who rarely saw herself in stories as a child, she loves to invent characters that are simple, whimsical, and inclusive. She is also the illustrator of the Sprinkles and Swirls ready-to-read books by Lola M. Schaefer, The Warrior’s Code by Kate Hobbs, and The Nature Journal. In her free time, you can find her making forts and snacks with her husband and three kids, Sadie Lou, Ben, and baby Joey.
