Summary

From million-copy bestselling author David Baddiel comes a laugh-out-loud and inspiring new adventure for all readers of 8 and up that is ahead of its time – 1,001 years ahead, to be precise… 
The year is 3020. 
Pip@256X#YY.3_7 is lonely and bored: she goes to virtual school on her G-Glasses, she only has a talking cat and parrot to hang out with, and she can’t even leave her LivingSpace due to the extreme heat and floods outside. 
Until the day that Pip explores a glowing ring in a lab and finds herself in a warehouse, in 2019. 
Where she meets boy-inventor Rahul – who is also lonely and bored. 
Together, Rahul and Pip are no longer lonely. But they have a whole load of new problems, including hiding talking animals from Rahul’s parents, and finding a way back to the future. 
Plus – just maybe – saving the world… 
Future Friend is a terrifically entertaining time-slip adventure that combines action, laugh-out-loud humour and the importance of friendship, in a story that asks the question – what would happen if your best friend came from the future? 
In this humorous, magic-filled adventure, Pip and Rahul, two lonely kids from different times, find solace in their unexpected friendship. Their journey is not just about time travel, but also about navigating social themes and the trials of teenage life. 
For fans of Tom Fletcher (The Christmasaurus), Jeff Kinney (Diary of a Wimpy Kid), Liz Pichon (Tom Gates 17), Andy Griffiths (The 78-Storey Treehouse), and Greg James (The Great Dream Robbery).
Duration: about 4 hours (03:55:12)
