Sara, Book 3: A Talking Owl Is Worth a Thousand Words!

Rate this book

“Do you believe in ghosts?” Annette just sort of blurted out.

Sara and Seth both looked up with surprise. “Well,” Sara stalled, “I guess I do.” She remembered the night Solomon had visited her in her bedroom after Jason and Jimmy had shot him, but she hadn’t really thought about him being a ghost that night; she’d just been so glad to see her beloved feathered friend.

Sara and Seth looked at each other. Both of them knew that if anything would fall into the category of ghosts, Solomon would most likely be it, but they didn’t say anything, uncertain about telling their new friend their special secret.

“Well, do you believe in ghosts?” Seth asked, looking intently at Annette’s serious face.

Annette looked at Seth and then at Sara, who both sat quietly, each waiting to hear the answer.

“No, I just wondered if you did,” Annette answered abruptly. “Hey, let’s swing.” And without taking the time to execute a perfectly calculated leap from the platform as she usually did, Annette grabbed the swinging rope and jumped off as if she couldn’t do so fast enough. . . .

Sara and Seth find a new friendship of shared experience when they meet Annette. Here is a story that speaks the eternal truth:
A Talking Owl is Worth a Thousand Words!
The wisdom of the ages is shared through a magical owl named Solomon. The momentum builds in this third and final Sara adventure, resulting in a powerful conclusion.

Favorite Passages:

Introduction
Within all that is, and isn't; including every place, and non place; swirling through the Unlimited Universal Environment, await the answers to everything you have ever needed to know about anything
. . .
You are about to embark upon a remarkable and exciting experience - a new way of seeing things, a new way of looking at some old ways of having fun.
And so, expect to realize some new perceptions. Expect to reconnect with your invulnerable Self. Expect to learn how to experience adventure without fearing risk.
_______

"Okay, okay, I get it. Change is a good thing," Sara said softly. "But I don't have to like it."
_______

"He always said that people spend too much time looking back at what was and not enough time enjoying what is. I think he's sort of sorry, though, that he didn't take more pictures."
_______

"Finally, somebody got a close up picture of her little girl's face - and a dog is licking food from it."
Sara read the caption: Little girl won't wash her face so she gets a lickin'. Both girls laughed.
______

"These boys killed this man, Solomon, with a gun?"
"Oh no, Annette, Solomon's not a man. He's an owl."
"Your dead friend is an owl?"
Sara and Seth looked at each other. This was coming out all wrong. "Well, he's not dead now. But he is an owl. A talking owl."
Annette took a deep breath and leaned back against the tree. "Oh, I see."
Sara and Seth sat quietly, looking at each other and then at Annette. This wasn't going well at all.
_______

"He's an owl, right?" Annette chimed in quickly.
Seth and Sara looked at each other and grinned.
"Well, yes, he is that, but oh, Annette, he is so much more! Solomon says that we are all much more than we think we are."
_______

Sara looked out from her hiding place. If I were your kid, I'd just build a raft and float as far away from you as possible, Sarah though. Away from all of you. You're just mean, awful people who don't know anything.
_______

You have stood in many places that looked worse than this one - and things have always worked out before. Don't give in to negative speculation.
_______

Plop! Well, hello, my fine, fearless, friendly, freedom-loving, female, featherless friends!
_______

. . . if you were speaking directly to the fairies of the Universe, what would you tell them that you would like them to do?
_______

Step Two is the work of the fairies of the Universe. Here's how it works: Step One is: You ask. Step Two is: The fairies of the Universe answer. And Step Three is: You must be in the receiving mode of what you are asking for.
_______

It is important to realize that things are never working against you. All things are working for you at all times.
_______

"I also noticed that Pete's Drugstore burned down last night."
"Oh, well, that's probably for the best," Sara answered. "I've been eating far too many candy bars, anyway."
"I heard your little brother ran away from home."
"Then it's true! The Universe is answering my every desire," Sara replied. "My world is now complete."
________

"Oh, she's just full of lucky days. But not me. I don't have lucky days."
"Well," Sara said timidly, "how about a lucky moment? Maybe you could just start there."
________

The most important thing to understand is that once you have asked, all kinds of things come into place to give you what you have asked for. You don't have to continue to ask again and again. It is best when you realize that once you have taken Step One (the asking) your work is to jump right to Step Three (the allowing).
________

It seems like magic to some, like miracles to others, like good luck or good fortune to others, but what always has happened is, somehow, consciously, or unconsciously, deliberately or indeliberately - YOU HAVE TO LET IT IN!
________

Let's see, what rhymes with owl? Howling owl. Not quite right. Allow. Allowing owl! I am an allowing owl, I am an allowing owl, I am an allowing owl.
Much better! I think I like it!
________

The way you feel right now - that's the way life is supposed to feel in every moment. Perfect and expanding. Enough, but becoming more. Satisfied, but eager for something else. Complete - but never, ever finished.
________

Who you are has come over you, Sara. Or perhaps it is better to say, you are now allowing who you really are to be. This is your normal state of being. This is who everyone would be - if they could just let it be.
________

That is how is happens, Sara. Little by little, people find things to worry about, and they feel less and less joyful as they find more and more things to worry about. But you know, Sara, it doesn't have to be that way. You don't have to let the sediment pile up on you, muting your clarity and your joy. If you polish your gem a little every day, you'll remain bright and clear, and anyone can polish themselves off anytime they want to by reaching for thoughts that feel better. You don't have to think thoughts that make you feel bad, Sara. There are plenty of other thoughts to choose from.
________

. . . I have not been teaching you to fix things. What I have been teaching you is to put yourself in a position, in a vibrational position, to allow your natural well-being to come to you.
________

You live in a big world, Sara, with many other people who may want things to be different than you want them to be. You cannot convince them all to agree with you, you cannot coerce them to agree with you, and you cannot destroy all of those who do not agree with you. Your only path to a joyous, powerful experience is to decide, once and for all, that you intend to feel good, no matter what. And as you practice turning your thoughts to things that do feel good - now you have discovered the secret to life.
________

"This is soooooo weird!" Annette said, shivering as she spoke.
"Just the right amount of weird." Sara laughed.
Just the perfect amount of weird, Solomon said, as he plopped down on the platform with the three of them.
"Solomon!' they all said at once, in anticipation of what was about to happen. "Why are we all here?"
________

Tonight I will fly with the truest part of who you are.
________

"Oh boy, was that weird!"
Just the right amount of weird. She heard Solomon's voice in her head.
________

Well, hello, my fine featherless friends. Or should I say, my glorious gaggle of ghosts?
________

Understanding that we are all different, and yet perfect as we are . . . that is normal.

This book (and the whole series) is very special to me. I may not 100% agree with everything that's written in it but I do believe in the overall message. I also know for a fact that this is not the last time I'm reading it and I'm curious to see how my perspective will change the next and the next and the next time I read these books. The reason why I love this series so much aren't the beautiful covers (the czech ones) nor the lovely characters (Sara will forever have a special meaning to me, and the same goes to Solomon, Seth, Aneta and Madeline), it's more what these books are able to give to me - a feeling of hope and hapiness. And the feeling that everything is under my control.

I pick this book everytime I feel low and even though I always get something new from the reread, it always brightens my mood. It also makes me think about my life and the entire world and I love that. It's so much more than just a children's book.
100000% recommend!

I think the 3rd part of the sara series is just as good as the first one (which is rare). these books are written with so much love & this for sure wasn’t the last time I picked them up.

this one in particular I love because personally.. change is not always the easiest thing for me and sara seemed to share this experience. Salomon explained beautifully how to work through emotions that come up while going through change that seems negative (at first).

it shifted my mindset as im now more careful with judging situations/people/things.. & even tho i understood many things before reading this book- it definitely deepened my understanding regarding these topics because of the way this story was told.

do i agree with everything said? no, but that doesn’t matter because the message came across & it’s very valuable.

also, i ADORE that they mentioned astral projection (at least that’s what I interpreted it as).

I bought the Sara trilogy six years ago at an Abraham-Hicks seminar, and it wasn’t until this year that I felt called to pick up the first one, and it wasn’t long at all before I finished it and devoured the second and third as well.

I truly believe that you will be inspired to read the book (in this case, trilogy) that is right for you, in perfect timing. I’ve been listening to Abraham Hicks and following their teachings for eight years; and the Sara books were a wonderful, refreshing, easy-to-digest take on their teachings in the form of a really sweet, lighthearted story.

Although these books are made for children (around ages 8+) there is absolutely something in them for everybody! There are so many nuggets of wisdom that I’ve taken from the story, and I’m sure I will go back to reading them again… and I especially can’t wait to read them with my future children one day!

Eine gute Idee, aber ich würde dieses Buch niemals meinen Kindern geben.
Zunächst die misogyne Lebenssicht, dass die Mütter ja fürs Kochen und co wichtig sind und Männer arbeiten, hat nichts in einem Kinderbuch zu suchen. Wenn ein Mann alleine ist, dann muss er eine Haushälterin einstellen, alleine schafft er das niemals. Ja die armen armen Männer, kein einziger kann einen Haushalt führen und generell kann Mann ja nur Fertiggerichte kochen.
Dann die Sicht auf Narben... Wenn Narben zurück beleiben, war man einfach zu wütend, wenn man glücklich ist, leiben garkeine Narben zurück! War für ein Quatsch. Aber hey, lasst uns Kindern Schuldgefühle einreden, wenn ihre Wunden nicht gut heilen. Ich bin gerne eine schlecht gelaunte Katrina mit meinen Narben. Die gehören zu mir und sind meine Gesichte. Aber klar, so OP-Narben verschwinden und entstehen nie, wenn man einfach glücklich ist ♥

Another great book in the series

It's sad there are no more books in this series at the time of this review writing! I would like to read more and we’ll have to see if Esther does more of them.

I listened to this book with the kids and ended up driving around until it was finished! They enjoyed it! They wanted to know when the next book was coming and I told them to email Esther to see what she has to say.

The book is a series of great lessons we can all apply! The largest lesson was to remember adults used to be kids and they believe as kids do now! The kids weren’t prepared for this revelation! They have much to learn in this area! It was nice to see this brought out in this story as it’s the end of the series! It was great to see the story picked up where it left off and added new elements to the story! I wonder if they could make this a TV show!

Ich habe das Buch eigentlich ganz zufällig gefunden und fand den Buchdeckel auch etwas kitschig, aber aus einem Grund, den ich nicht nennen kann, war ich neugierig.

So Sara ist eine junge Schülerin und hat einen Freund der eine sprechende Eule ist, Salomon. Salomon spielt irgendwie die Rolle der universalen Wahrheit und erinnert Sara (und ihre zwei andere Freunde) das die Welt immer zuhört und immer das beste für sie will.

Es hört sich ein bischen nach esoterik Kram (und wie ich später auch gelesen habe, sind die Autoren sehr für Manifestation usw.) aber es hat mir ein bisschen geholfen, die Welt anders zu betrachten.

Es tut sich ja keinen Schaden, etwas Glauben zu haben dass manche Dinge zu gutem führen.

In einer Welt der harschen Realität ist es wichtig auch eine kurze Pause zu machen und treu zum Puls der Welt und der Natur zu bleiben.

My fave of the 3 books!

This was a treat! I discovered gaps in the LOA that I haven’t seen before. Explained to perfectly through these stories, so easy to understand and see what I’ve been missing in manifesting all this time. Truly a masterpiece. I love it. The reason I love this book more than the first two is because this book was filled with teachings whereas the other two talked a lot about the stories building up to the teachings. I wish there were more! I’d read them all.

Reading this book made me feel so good that all I could think about was reading it day, night, or before work. All the time. By being in this good feeling place, I’ve started to move and manifest things that have been sitting stale.

Truly what LOA is about is feeling good. Putting yourself in feeling good situations and one such situation is reading this book.

The Sara series is HIGHLY recommended. I loved all the books but this was definitely my favorite. This book is about a group of friends who built a tree house in the forest and love to hangout there. They are also very good friends with an owl who lives in the forest and constantly visits and talks with them. Throughout the book they come across some tough challenges and the owl helps them overcome them. I would have loved to see some more descriptive words in the book because there were some places where there could have been some words to better describe and help you in vision what was happening. Other than that I absolutely loved this book and loved reading this amazing adventure!

-Who is your favorite character and why?
Annette because she has gone through some hard times, but she stays strong. She is also a really nice person.

-What surprised you most?
That Mrs. Wilsenholm knew and remembered Solomon.

-Would you change the ending? Why/why not?
No I would not.
Because I like how Sara, Seth, and Annette are all friends and that they all have a fun time together.

I want MORE of Sara, Solomon, Seth & Annette!

I love this book as much as I loved the first two books from the 3 book series. Learning about the Law of Attraction through the vivid experiences of the characters in this edition was awesome, amazing & oh so brilliantly taught. My well-being & focus while reading this as well as the other 2 books has been delightful & intentional. I love this well intentional feeling that i am going to begin again reading all 3 books again!

More! Looking forward to more!

I have just finished reading all 3 books in the Sara series and loved every moment and page--delicious and delightfully fun! I have learned so much from these books that I can and am applying to my own life. As a great-grandma of 3 I can tell you that you are never to old to learn and never to physically old to be a kid at heart! Because that is who/what we truly are! I am remembering who I truly am! 😊

I am so excited about these books. And this one was even more potently on point than the first two, if that is even possible. This series should be required reading for anyone coming to Earth! And these books certainly aren't just for youth, not by any means. Though I will say, my 8 year old is nearly heartbroken that there isn't another installment... He'll have to compose his own :)

Sara ist sich ihrer Freundschaft mit Seth plötzlich unsicher, als sich dieser mit dem neuen Mädchen an der Schule, Annette, anfreundet. Es braucht eine Weile und immer wieder die Worte der Eule Salomon, bis sie ihre Eifersucht ablegen kann und sieht, dass der sich vergrößernde Kreis von "Menschen gleichen Gefieders" eine Bereicherung ist. Außerdem lernt sie, wie man auch mit anderen Veränderungen im Leben umgehen kann. - Auch dieser dritte Band nutzt die Gelegenheit, die in Band 1 (und 2) schon dargelegte Grundeinstellung des Gesetzes der Anziehung zu vertiefen. Die Autoren finden dafür immer wieder leicht andere Beschreibungen und Beispiele, so dass ihre Botschaft immer tiefer sickert. Nach Band 2 fand ich persönlich diesen dritten den Besten, vielleicht aber auch genau wegen dieser aufbauenden Vertiefung.

A fantastic conclusion to this trilogy. A powerful bunch of tools packed into a fun series for children to grasp their own inner power from an early age. As a parent and an avid Abe Hicks fan and follower I found the simplification of some of the more complex subjects from the Abe teachings extremely helpful! Highly recommend these books for parents and children to read together.

outstanding

The author writes with such ease and finesse, fun and wit. Such a gentle story it’s perfectly simple, and clear. I loved how the story took you on different turns of such interest. I have loved reading every word of these books that is quite different from all the other books I’ve read. Such positive feel good books.

Thank’you

More questions answered.

I enjoyed this book immensely. I feel very at peace and comfortable that I understand how the Law of Attraction works and to move along with it. I cannot wait until another Sara book comes with even more understanding.

I enjoyed all 3 books. I like how the broke down the concept so simply that kids can understand them. They have provided how to execute them as well. I also basked in the humor. Worth it! I would probably reread them.
