'It's Franny's eighth birthday and she's getting her first pet - a cockatiel called Prince Ping Pong.

'She's always wanted someone to love, and more importantly, someone to love her back. But when Prince Ping Pong starts loving their daughter the wrong way , Joan and Richard are thrown into an absurdist parenting nightmare. They must try to remove the deviant bird while conserving what's left of Franny's innocence.

'After all, these are her formative years.

'Love Bird explores the natural process of childhood sexual development and how it is controlled, twisted and warped - often by those who mean to protect it.'  (Publication summary)

'Love Bird is a potent blend of absurdist comedy and twisted kitchen-sink drama, exploring society's fraught relationship with female sexual development.'
