Speck: An Itty-Bitty Epic — Margaux Meganck
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.
