Overview
In The Name Game!, Daphne has never (ever) loved her name, but it is her name and she can't do much to change it. So when the first day of fourth grade comes, Daphne is flustered when the new teacher can't seem to remember her name. It's not Duffy or Daffy or Doffy. It's Daphne! And if you ask her, there's a lot in a name.... In The Vampire Dare!, Daphne wonders why everyone is so crazy for vampires. She decides it's kinda cool to be bitten by a vampire because you'll live forever--and if you can't die, you can't get old and wrinkly. So when the teachers announce a costume day (even though Halloween is long past), Daphne wants to be the best vampire ever! But what is cool and what is nerdy in Vampire Land? Daphne's about to find out!
