Yap! Yap! Yap! Welcome to Pug’s world—where simple text meets adorable artwork, and young readers meet their new best friend.

Acclaimed author-illustrators—including winners of Caldecott, TheodorSeuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors—create original, high quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read with parents, teachers, or on their own!
Ethan Long is an artist and animator who has written and illustrated dozens of children’s books. His accolades include a Theodor Seuss Geisel Medal for Up, Tall, and High! and two daytime Emmy nominations for Tasty Time With Ze Frank and Scribbles and Ink.
