Phil of the Future: Stuck in Time: Phil of the Future: Stuck in Time - Book #1 by Papademetriou, Lisa - 2005-08-02

New York: Disney Press, 2005-08-02. Paperback. Very Good. 124 pages; light edge wear; Meet the Diffys, your typical twenty-second century family. When their time-travel machine breaks down in present-day suburban America, Phil and Pim Diffy are forced to enroll in an old-fashioned institution known as ''school.'' Brilliant Pim thinks of her classmates as primitive knuckle-dragging losers. But Phil decides to make the best of it by trying to befriend a popular girl named Keely. Unfortunately, his polyester 70's clothes (from a programming error in the Wardrobe-o-gram) and his love of math are about to give Phil his first lesson in twenty-first century society-the fate of being ''uncool.'' Plus Phil attempts to become popular by using a futuristic gadget that makes him look like a super-athlete. But if Pim gets her hands on that gadget, he may look like a super-laughingstock instead!
