Daffodil Patterson is a small girl with BIG plans - it's really not her fault that they always seem to go a bit wrong ...

Or the fact that her brother's band Hairy Wasp would break up before they could provide the entertainment. Or the total lack of guests. Luckily, Daffodil has the knack of looking on the bright side and is soon planning her next absolute bobby-dazzler of an idea!
