'''The Daria Diaries''' was the first official ''Daria'' paperback, book. It was written by [[Anne D. Bernstein]], and published by [[MTV]] Books and Pocket Books.
 
The book is similar in layout to the 1993 [[Beavis and Butt-Head]] book ''[[This Book Sucks]]'', most notably in its town overviews, childhood pictures and character introduction pages.
Valuable background material provided by this book include such goodies a map of [[Lawndale]] (the MTV website map adds a few details to this one), information on the move from Highland, part of a [[The Malevolent Secret of Haddon Hall|short story]] written by Daria, childhood "photos," [[Jake Morgendorffer|Jake]] and [[Helen Morgendorffer|Helen's]] "Vows of Commitment" and postcards from the wandering Lanes.
 
This book is followed by ''[[The Daria Database]]''.
 
==Features==
Bernstein wrote this soon after the first season, and [http://www.the-wildone.com/dvdaria/anneinterviewsfull.html has stated] "I had to make up a ton of stuff that did not yet exist for The Daria Diaries. And then it all became part of "the Daria Universe" so people had to follow what I established!".
