Table!

Table is an artist book for adults and a culinary hide-and-seek adventure for kids.

Set in the vibrant illustrated world of Maggie Cowles, every meal becomes a celebration. Food is more than something we eat — it is memory, comfort, sharing, and storytelling. As the pages turn, children are encouraged to search for a small hidden element within the illustrations, transforming reading into a playful visual game. For adults, these warm and lively scenes echo the feeling of gathering around food: spontaneous meals, shared laughter, and the memories that quietly take shape while cooking together.

Maggie Cowles is an American illustrator and artist whose work lingers over meals, cultural touchstones, and everyday indulgences. Through these subjects, she explores memory and the quiet poetry of ordinary things, often with a gently voyeuristic eye. She studied textiles at the Rhode Island School of Design and spent many years working as a fashion print & graphic director before turning fully to illustration and fine art.
