    About Speck

    Everything and everyone has a place in the universe, but for a little speck, lost at sea, it will take an extraordinary journey to find it.

    Deep in a tide pool, too small to see,
    Thousands of tiny specks go forth.
    Each one searching
    for a place to stay, and grow, and thrive…

    The little speck does not know what it is, only that it wishes to find out. And so it embarks on a journey across the sea. From sun-flecked surf to darkest depths, past schools of fish, storm-tossed ships and hungry eels…. Until, at last, it finds exactly what it was looking for: a place to belong.

    In vivid watercolor paintings, Margaux Meganck brings this tale to life, seamlessly shifting perspective to show how even the tiniest creatures—every barnacle, every child, every star in the sky—contributes to something greater than itself.
