More Than a Ribbon is a children's picture book set in the dog show world, following Kermit, a young dog learning what it means to show up, try again, and keep going.
As Kermit prepares for his time in the ring, he practices, makes mistakes, and faces disappointment when the ribbon goes to another dog. With encouragement from Pebble and Remy, he begins to understand that growth comes from effort, not outcomes.
Set against the sights and sounds of a real dog show, the story introduces young readers to the rhythm of the ring while focusing on themes of perseverance, confidence, and learning through experience.
Written for children ages 3-8, More Than a Ribbon offers a grounded, accessible look at competition, and reminds readers that the most important part of any journey is showing up and trying again.
