Freeze Frame is the seventh in a series of chapter books based on Phineas and Ferb, published on May 18, 2010.

Book Summary[]

HalftonePerry2

Perry in halftone

Freeze Frame is a near word-for-word adaptation of the episodes "Traffic Cam Caper" and "Bowl-R-Ama Drama", presented as Part One and Part Two. The book makes the transition from Part One to Part Two with the simple phrase, "The beautiful summer's day was suddenly shattered by an earsplitting shriek". Differences between the book and the episodes as broadcast are noted below. In general, most of the differences are that of timing, where an event is described as happening at a slightly different time (usually before) than when it happened in the episode, though some lines are missing from the episode.

Each page typically has a picture from the episode that helps the reader visualize what is being described. The picture is a halftone screenshot from the episode (taken from the wide format originals), cropped into custom shapes such as rectangles with cut-out corners or ellipses. Each chapter includes a picture of Phineas and Ferb at the beginning of the chapter, and Perry's image appears next to each page number.
