Everywhere in Mississippi

Hardcover (Quail Ridge Pr Oct. 1, 1996)
Everywhere in Mississippi is the wonderful, whimsical story of a man in search of his lost dog, Skippy. His journey across the state takes him through over 300 Mississippi cities, towns, and communities, all ingeniously integrated into this twisting, turning tale. In lyrical, rhyming verse, and delightful alliterations, author/illustrator Laurie Parker, a Mississippi native, has woven an enchanting yarn—vividly illustrated—that will engage and amuse Mississippians of all ages.

Asked if he has looked in PELAHATCHIE For a dog that was really scratchy,

The man replies,

"Yes, I've looked there, thanks.

I've looked in ROSEDALE, and RED BANKS, CORINTH, COMO, COTTON PLANT, DARLING, DERMA, and DURANT, WAVELAND, WESSON, WEBB, WINONA, VICKSBURG, VARDAMAN, VERONA—Even up in OKOLONA!!

I've searched these towns in Mississippi, And still I haven't found my Skippy!"
