About the Author & Illustrator
Scott Thomas Nicol was born and raised in New Jersey. Although he doesn’t write for a living (he works
in the construction industry), he has always loved writing. “I would relish writing assignments in school.
Even in college, I took creative writing courses as electives.”
The Dr. Jim series of books he is creating, starting with Dr. Jim & the Special Stethoscope,
has been something he considered doing for years. “I started fooling around with rhyming words and stanzas
to tell this story. Finally, I got serious about it and created a cute concept about a young country
veterinarian and this magical instrument he uses to figure out his patients’ ills. It became a great
little story. And in the subsequent stories are (and will be) as well. These could be a feature animated
film in the making!”
Scott is married and has three beautiful children. “This whole story writing is, kind of, for them.
I created these cute stories with them in mind.”
David W. Youngblood was born in Norman, Oklahoma, but was raised, for the most part, in Durham, North Carolina.
He studied “Fine Art” at both Louisburg College and at East Carolina University. However, his passion for
Comic Books took him to New Jersey. David enrolled in The Joe Kubert School of Cartoon And Graphic Art, Inc.,
where his studies were completed upon his three years there. David shouts out a “Hello” to his fellow Kubie’s!!
David has always enjoyed making people smile, through jokes, or by leaving sketches on people’s desk, as
they were away for lunch. But now, with the printing of Dr. Jim and the Special Stethoscope, David hopes
to bring smiles to more people than just his family, friends and co-workers. God has given him a “gift”. And
now, he has given David the opportunity to use it and he greatly appreciates that, as this book almost didn’t
happen. Back in 2007, David’s “gift” for drawing was taken away from him, though briefly, by a severe blow to
his head. After many years, David was blessed to get his “gift” back. And now, he looks forward to what else
lies ahead of him.
