Being a horse-obsessed, big dreamer, I refused to wait until I was older or had more money to chase the experiences I read about in books. Because of this, my life with horses has been full of adventure, mistakes, and learning the hard way.
Stories from the Barn Aisle is my 30+ year old self telling some of those stories. I think of it as a letter of encouragement to all the other gritty horse lovers in the world, and a love letter to myself - I did those things, I made those mistakes, I learned, I had fun, and now I can see it all with grace and humor. I hope you can too!
~Sarah, the author
About the book:
A girl’s obsession with all things horses carried her on some epic adventures and landed her in precarious situations. When her first horse came with the same name as the hero of her favorite book, Misty of Chincoteague, it seemed like a match made in heaven. However, it didn’t take long for Sarah to learn that there is no such thing as a good fairy tale without a little trouble. It turns out that horses cause a lot of trouble. From first rides and crashes to making road-trip errors and staring at the belly of a horse that’s gone into full-on Black Stallion mode, follow Sarah on her wild adventures from the safety of your own home … or wherever you are reading.
Stories from the Barn Aisle includes these 5 short stories:
I've ridden horses my ENTIRE life so I did not expect to be entertained or impressed with Sarah's "Stories from the Barn". I was wrong—on both counts. I couldn't stop reading her book, her stories. Sarah is a gifted storyteller and between the recollection of my own memories of my early interactions with horses and Sarah’s entertaining recounting of her own, I simply could not stop reading this book. Anyone who has ever loved a horse will love this book. Highly recommend!"
- Donna Barton Brothers: Former Jockey, NBC Sports Horse Racing Analyst and Reporter
"While I know next to nothing about horses and have never spent time in a saddle, reading Sarah's words put me there and even despite my inexperience, I can feel the thrill of it."
- Erin Napier, star of HGTV’s show Hometown
