Description: Willie Morris, My Dog Skip, Inscribed and Signed First Edition Hardcover in Dust Jacket, 1995. ISBN 0-679-44144-1. Book is in perfect, near-fine condition. Book boards perfect, spine tight, pages bright and clean, appears unopened and unread except to be signed by the author. The inscription in black ink on the full title page reads "To Gretchen, Please take care of Honey. Fondly, Willie Morris" with the date "5/8/95" above. The book was purchased out of the estate of Gretchen Passons in Starkville, MS, so the book has had only one previous owner. Dust jacket is perfect with no bumps or bruises to edges, tiny darker mark on top right front edge as indicated in pictures. My Dog Skip is the story of nine-year-old Willie Morris growing up in Yazoo City, Mississippi, a tale of a boy and his dog in a small, sleepy Southern town that teaches about family, friendship, love, devotion, trust and bravery. Willie and Skip's relationship goes beyond that of owner and dog, and becomes a relationship recognized and celebrated by the entire town. In 2000, the book was made into a film of the same name. An absolutely beautiful book by a very collectible Mississippi writer!
