Daphne love, love, loves Greek mythology! The problem is this makes her feel unusual, different from her friends. When her teacher tells the class that this term they'll be studying The Greeks, she doesn't know what to do. She doesn't want to stand out, BUT she can't bear to hold in all the ideas and stories, swirling in her brain. Fortuitously, Shelly can help with this one! She's been called all sorts of names in her life - weirdo, crackpot, eccentric, odd! Can Shelly help Daphne step out of the chorus, into the spotlight? How does it feel to have different interests from your friends? Could uniqueness really be superpower? Listen to find out. Highlights include – an air-guitar teaching heron, singing a classic 90's track, a low budget re-enactment of the original Olympic Games and a garden party that EVERYONE is invited to!Let us know what you
