2025 was the year of "Behind the Scenes" growth for Wembly the Pug.

While we didn’t release a new title in 2025, it was anything but a "quiet" year. It was a year of building the foundation for what’s next. Looking back at the numbers and milestones, I’m reminded that progress isn't always about the "launch"—it’s about the momentum:

Three years ago, I had this little dream to become a children's book author. My goal was simple: make fun, wholesome stories for kids about courage and family.

Fast forward to today, and wow, look how far we've come!

Thanks to some amazing support and a lot of hard work, we've gone from just one book to a whole world of Wembly!
