Karen Amanda never imagined that her first day at high school would arrive alongside the greatest sadness she had ever known: the loss of her beloved Grandpa Lorenzo, the man who filled her childhood with stories, laughter, and wonder.

But Grandpa Lorenzo leaves behind two extraordinary gifts.

One is Piloso, a funny and magical talking pencil capable of drawing incredible objects, opening portals, and guiding Karen through amazing adventures.

The second gift is an even greater secret—one that will forever change the way she sees the world.

As Karen struggles to overcome her grief, she finds herself traveling through fantastic worlds where games come to life, emotions shape reality, and a mysterious force known as Mr. Shadow threatens to steal happiness from everyone.

Along the way, she encounters unforgettable places and characters, including:

• The Eternal Games Park

• The Earthquake Twins

• General Star

• The Bullfrog Family

• Numberland and Kalkuleitor

• The most confused Big Bad Wolf in fairy-tale history

Filled with humor, imagination, emotion, and timeless values, The First Day at High School is a magical adventure about friendship, courage, resilience, hope, and the healing power of love.

Perfect for children, families, teachers, and anyone who enjoys unforgettable fantasy adventures where imagination helps us understand real emotions.
