Per the page opposite the title page, "This story was compiled and written under the direction of Lucy levering Stark with the collaboration of the following children: Bob Bentley, Beverly Adams, Peggy Bentley, John Curry, Jeanette Curry,Betty Miller, Valetta Miller, Joan Campbell, and Carol Lynn Dressen." Nine children and their teacher collaborated on this delightful true story of a pet deer, Skippy a most unusual deer who had a taste for garden roses dash and the courage to fight off a mountain lion. Skippy was a character much talked about in the one-room school at Camp Baldy, in the San Antonio (California) Canyon. Everybody knew something about her, especially the Curry children, who had adopted her when she was a frightened, helpless orphaned fawn. Actually Queenie the Curry dog discovered the fawn and brought her home and from then on Skippy's exploits were a matter of interest to all the children around. To record Skippy's doings, the children in the one-room school and their teacher organized their editorial activities -- they were already publishing a semi-monthly newspaper, The Baldy Breeze -- into book material form. Everyone took part, for everyone knew something different about Skippy and her family. The result is a uniquely appealing story, simply and charmingly told. Skippy is illustrated by Betty Sos, an older sister of one of the children -- now all grown up -- who also knew Skippy personally." [from the dust jacket] " Born in Los Angeles, Lucy Levering Stark was brought up in Redlands and taught in that area as a teacher and then a principal of a larger city school. She was active in the Redlands branch of the American Association of University Women; in the Redlands Horticultural and Improvement Society; and in alumni, retired teachers, church and community organizations; and was Vice President of the San Bernardino County Historical Society. An alumna of the University of Redlands, the University of Southern California, the College of Oratory, and the Hollywood Community School of the Theater, she has written for educational publications." [from the rear panel of the dust jacket] The Currys mentioned in this description were members of the family that ran Camp Curry on Mount Baldy. An extraordinary item related to Camp Curry and Mt. Baldy, CA. It is not absolutely clear whose hand is in the signature of Ruth Curry Burns; it may be that of the author neither possibility has been ascertained with certainty. Signed by Author(s).
