- Summary:
- "Little Won's are Little Ahaan's messages that were given to his parents Anil & Aarti after his passing. They served as guide, balm and manna to propel/nourish them on to the path of truth. You can find them all in the book 'Where One is Not a Number' (Won). These artists' books take the form of the milkweed seeds which are dispersed by the wind. The milkweed Asclepias Syriaca is named after the Greek god of healing and serves as food for butterflies & bees." Back of box
