History
Sarah Prachett was a student at Odyssey Middle School who is friends with many of the other kids around town, including Mandy Straussberg, Liz Horton (with whom she also clashes because she finds Liz bossy), Alex Jefferson, Cal Jordan, and Nathaniel Graham; she has ongoing tension with Jared DeWhite, but still goes along with his ideas and schemes from time to time. She was a reporter for the Odyssey Owl.
Personality
Sarah holds a distinction among her peers for being a highly sarcastic girl. She can be very judgmental of others, and is not afraid to say what she thinks, no matter how acerbic. She can get very impatient with people who annoy her, but she can also be very loyal and helpful to the people she befriends—which often includes using her biting wit to bring them down to earth.
Family
Sarah has an unnamed uncle near whose house Sarah and Mandy camp in #478: “Strange Boy in a Strange Land”. According to #452: “Missionary: Impossible” Sarah is of Dutch descent.
Trivia
- She juggles (#467: “Broken Window”)
- She takes a Spanish class on Thursdays (#429: “The YAK Problem”)
- She lives on Maple Street and lived next door to Jared DeWhite, at least before Jared's family moved out of town prior to the Novacom Saga (#400: “The Spy Who Bugged Me”, #426: “The Buck Starts Here”)
- In The Greatest Adventure: Club Edition comic, Sarah replaced Holly Ferguson from the original edition, and partially co-opted her character design.

He said children are getting smarter and smarter, and soon they'll be smarter than us, so from now on we'll teach 'em lies. Everyone thought it was a great idea, and they've been teaching kids wrong stuff ever since. |
