As the awarding ambassador for the prestigious Best of Best Review, it is our honor to announce that Susan Yonke has been recognized as the Best Children’s Book Publisher in New York of 2025. This prestigious accolade highlights Susan’s remarkable achievements and the unique, heartwarming nature of her publishing brand, Scarlett the Pug™.

A Brand Built on Heart and Creativity

Scarlett the Pug™ is not your typical children’s book brand. It’s a vibrant, joyful world inspired by a real pug with a big personality. Susan Yonke, alongside her beloved pug Scarlett, crafts delightful and imaginative books that bring creativity, positivity, and fun to children everywhere. The books, including coloring books, activity books, and story adventures, are filled with heartwarming themes that encourage kids to explore, laugh, and express themselves in ways that are both playful and meaningful.

The brand’s mission is clear,  to create clean, safe, and age-appropriate content designed to inspire creativity and build confidence. By offering books that focus on kindness, positivity, and humor, Scarlett the Pug™ has become a trusted resource for parents, teachers, and gift-givers looking for ways to keep children entertained while fostering imagination.

Why Scarlett the Pug Stands Out

Scarlett the Pug™ is rooted in a real, relatable bond between Susan and her pet. Scarlett, the real-life pug, is more than just a character,  she’s a travel buddy, an adventurer, and a friend who engages children with her sweet, lovable personality. Each book in the Scarlett the Pug™ collection is crafted with a personal touch, making it feel as if children are exploring the world through the eyes of a playful, real-life pug.

A Connection Like No Other

The secret to Scarlett the Pug’s success lies in the authenticity of its story. Scarlett is not just a cartoon; she’s a beloved pet, and children can sense the love that goes into each story. The books reflect the duo’s real-life adventures, from exploring cities to experiencing cultural traditions, holidays, and seasons. This grounding in reality makes the stories both relatable and educational, as kids are introduced to new concepts and values through Scarlett’s whimsical adventures.

Parents and educators alike have lauded the impact of Scarlett’s books. “My daughter absolutely adores the Scarlett the Pug coloring books! The illustrations are adorable, the scenes are creative, and the books keep her engaged for hours,  without screens,” shares Laura M., a parent of a 7-year-old. Similarly, Mrs. Bennett, an elementary school art teacher, emphasizes, “The Scarlett the Pug series is a huge hit! The line art is clean and easy to color, and the themes are uplifting, promoting creativity and fine motor skills.”

A Heartfelt Approach to Publishing

What truly sets Scarlett the Pug™ apart is Susan Yonke’s dedication to creating a brand that is deeply personal. This is a brand built on love and authenticity, where every book feels like an extension of Susan and Scarlett’s adventures. Unlike large corporate publishers, Scarlett the Pug™ remains true to its roots, prioritizing genuine connection and heartfelt storytelling.

This recognition from Best of Best Review acknowledges Susan Yonke’s exceptional ability to create a publishing brand that resonates with families, educators, and children. Through her hard work and passion, she has brought to life a series of books that inspire imagination, promote kindness, and offer endless fun for kids.

Celebrating Creativity and Imagination

As the Best Children’s Book Publisher in New York of 2025, Scarlett the Pug™ is more than just a series of books; it’s a celebration of creativity, positivity, and the joys of childhood. It’s a reminder of the importance of play, exploration, and connecting with the world around us.

For anyone looking to introduce children to a world of fun, adventure, and positivity, Scarlett the Pug™ is a brand that stands out in the realm of children’s literature. Susan Yonke’s dedication to creating engaging and meaningful content has earned her this well-deserved recognition, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for this delightful brand.
