FD,
If you go too slow the high wing will stall first and if you whilst this is happening reverse the inputs (as in rudder and aileron) you will end up in a sideslip opposite to the one you started with.
The ATPL text I am reading agrees with you so long as there is sufficient dihedral in a low wing configuration or when the a/c has a high wing configuration...which I assume most light a/c are one of.
