Bite Sized is a mother's story of striving to nourish her child. It is about a monster that lurks close by all of us in the modern world - the monster of 'too much' and 'not enough'. It is about a ravenous illness and threads, between parents and children, that connect, entangle, unravel and stretch. Above all, it is about taking on the monsters and trusting in the importance of love.
