Sara, Book 1
Praise for SARA, Book 1
An author writes:
“
Sara
is the heartwarming novel of a girl who discovers the secrets of creating a happy life. And as Sara discovers how to create a better life for herself by starting right where she lives—the reader also learns the same lessons. Magically, both are transformed.
“Reading this refreshing and inspiring book can awaken all readers to the inner power they already have for creating the kind of life they’ve always wished for.
“
Sara
is a book you will want to give to your family and friends because it conveys powerful messages about life in a manner that is easy to understand and digest.
“The authors’ inspired writing weaves an enchanting spell that can change lives just by reading it. And while this is not specifically a ‘children’s book,’
Sara
is a life-transforming story for the child in each of us.
“Powerful. Magical. Empowering. Read it.”
A tax accountant writes:
“Sara is wonderful. I’m on my third reading! So much to learn from it. Gives me a wonderful lift upward!”
A ten-year-old writes:
“I just read your book.… It’s the best book I’ve ever read in my whole life. I just wanted to thank you for writing it ’cause it’s made the biggest change in my whole entire life.”
A grandmother says:
“What an overwhelming feeling of joy and appreciation I am feeling.
My granddaughter now keeps reading parts to us and to her friends … so clear and delightful!”
“This wonderful little book is a gem, elegant in its clarity of message.
Its teachings fly straight to the heart, connecting to the Sara in each of us! A gentle, charming story, it is sometimes funny, often poignant, and most of all, wonderfully joyful. It will surely become a primer for students of well-being.”

psychotherapist
And Abraham says:
“This book will help you to remember that you’re an eternal being …
and it will help you to discover the everlasting bond that connects joyous loved ones to one another.”

PART I THE FOREVERNESS OF FRIENDS OF A FEATHER
PART II THE HAPPILY FOREVER AFTERLIFE OF SARA AND SOLOMON
OTHER HAY HOUSE TITLES FOR YOUNG READERS
Here is an inspiring as well as inspired book about a child’s experiential journey into unlimited joyousness. Sara is a shy, withdrawn ten-year-old girl who is not very happy. She has an obnoxious brother who constantly teases her, cruel and unfeeling classmates, and an apathetic attitude toward her schoolwork. In short, she represents a lot of kids in our society today. When I first read this book, I was struck by the similarities between Sara and my own ten-year-old. Sara is really a composite of all children.
Sara wants to feel good and happy and loving, but as she looks around, she doesn’t find much to feel that way about. This all changes when she meets Solomon, a wise old owl, who shows her how to see things differently through the eyes of unconditional love. He teaches Sara how to always be in an atmosphere of pure, positive energy. She sees for the first time who she really is and her unlimited potential. You, as the reader, will realize this is so much more than a children’s story. This is a blueprint for attaining the joy and happiness that are your birthright.
My whole family read this book, and we haven’t been the same since. My husband, perhaps, was the most moved by it. He actually said that it had such a tremendous impact on him that he looks at life with new eyes. It’s like being nearsighted your whole life and then finally getting glasses. Everything becomes crystal clear.
I cannot say enough good things about this life-transforming book. You will share in Sara’s ups and downs on the way to greater heights of fulfillment and know that there is a Sara in all of us. If there is only one book you ever buy, make sure it is this one (it’s for all ages). You won’t regret it!

“People would rather be entertained than informed.” That was, I believe, an observation of eminent publisher William Randolph Hearst. If so, then to inform in an entertaining manner would seem to be the most effective mode of conveying information, even information of great personal value.
