About the Author

Dr. Scott Donaldson is a business professor at Crowder College — and, more importantly, 'Papa Scott' to his granddaughter, Scottie Ray. He holds a doctorate in education and has completed more than 30 hours of psychology coursework, and he brings that understanding of how children learn and develop to every story he writes.

He came to the classroom the long way around: twenty years in professional sales, teaching at Carl Junction High School and Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College, and a decade in enrollment leadership at NEO A&M and Pittsburg State University. At Crowder he also serves as President of the Faculty Association.

His Papa Scott & Scottie Ray picture books — the Adventures, Values, and Bible series — grew out of everyday moments with Scottie Ray: trips to the zoo and the farm, learning shapes, learning to count, turned into gentle read-aloud stories for toddlers and the grown-ups who love reading with them. Scott publishes through his own imprint, Scott D Education, and lives in Riverton, Kansas. He is also the author of Faith and Finances: Having a Heart of Stewardship, a workbook that grew out of a class he led at his church, and of The Family Cookbook. His favorite classroom remains a lap, a couch, or the shade of a good tree.
