Kenneth Johnson

Kenneth Johnson is an author, counselor, educator, co-owner of a child care center/afterschool program and real estate agent. He is a Mississippian with degrees from the University of Mississippi and a graduate degree from Mississippi State University. Kenneth was employed in community mental health centers for several years, as well as an inpatient facility. He and his wife Georgia of 36 years leaped out on faith in 2009 and started an after-school center which evolved into a full service child care center that continues to be in operation.

Kenneth has always had an interest in writing, and his experiences and exposure to children books at the daycare center encouraged him to pursue writing books. His first children’s manuscript, Beyond Caring, was published in March of 2024. His future plans are to use his experiences as a child care provider to use an element of humor as well as convey a positive message to our youth readers.
