Hello! Great question!
It's important to understand what possessive adjectives are - they modify a noun to indicate ownership or possession. In English the possessive adjectives are 'my', 'our', 'his', 'her', 'their', 'your' and 'its'.
In the examples you mentioned, 'Sarah' and 'our family' are the nouns, and we will modify them by using possessive adjectives; 'her' in place of 'Sarah' and 'our' in place of 'our family'. The sentences will look as follows:
This is her book
We love our dog
I hope this gives you some insight into how possessive adjectives work. Please feel free to reach out with more questions.
