Bookroo's summary
Ruby always wants just one more—whether it's a minute of sleep or a scoop of ice cream. But when her endless 'one mores' spiral into chaos, she must learn when enough is enough. Will Ruby discover the balance between wanting more and appreciating what she has? Join her on a whimsical journey of self-discovery and moderation.
"Just One More Scoop"
— from the book
From the publisher
Sometimes Ruby needs just one more minute of sleep, one more thingy for her hair, one more push on the swing, and one more scoop on her cone, (and one more, and one more, and one more . . .) until one more is just too much. Maybe it’s time for just one? If you know a someone like Ruby, Just One More will be just right!

Stories behind the story
How did you come up with the idea of Just One More?
Well, as an exhausted first time mom, I was blown away with my child's energy and always pushing the limits. It was mostly innocent...like one more bike ride around the block, one more pitch of the ball, one more horsey ride...and I would muster up the energy but thinking, "holy moly." But then came the times that teetered into overindulgence, like too many sprinkles or time watching the TV and I thought that there really needed to be a book to teach kids how to tow the line. When I am out selling this book, it is hilarious the amount of parents that say, "Oh, that's my kid!!!"

“Brief oversized text and large oil paintings combine wonderfully to introduce readers to Ruby, a child who lives life LARGE.”
