Daisy, Bold & Beautiful is the story of D.J, A young girl who learns to overcome her fears and gain the confidence to stand up for herself.
D.J has recently transferred schools and is very nervous about her first day at the new school. She meets May, a bubbly girl in her bus, and instantly feels a sense of security with her. She then meets Payton and Lexi who will later become her friends for life!
As the story goes on, Persephone The Goddess of spring visits D.J and they both instantly bond as they share their common love for gardening. They talk about their life and how D.J picked up her love for gardening from her mom. D.J is sad to hear about the story of Persephone and how Hades tricked her into staying in the underworld where no plants grow.
Although D.J had made friends on her first day of school, she is nervous and feels like she doesn't belong with them. Mainly because of the video games that the girls love but D.J has no interest in. She is scared to express what she really feels and thus is made to play games with the girls.
So, one day Persephone and D.J make a promise that each one will stand up for themselves. And D.J overcomes her anxiety and fears and finally is able to communicate with her friends and also the cute guy Hudson she had a crush on! And Persephone on the other hand convinces Hades to let her plant the house plants that required less sunlight!
