My dog loves when people tell her stories! It’s less about the content and more about the interaction. The book is totally for the child’s benefit so they can learn to read.
There’s also the bonus of showing kids that good dogs come from shelters and not just breeders, and definitely not from puppy mills. These kids will remember this when it’s time to get a dog.
This made me imagine a TV show where a kid reads to their dog but the dog understands and is imagining themselves as the book’s main character and every week we get a new story starring the dog.
Mmm, yes. Dogs, famously known for loving being read to.
Dogs tend to just like being included in things.
I’m not arguing against that. Why do you assume I am? Because I’m saying we could do better?

Sorry, I’m not here to read you, but will block whatever bs you’re trying to pull.
aww
They don’t care about the content obviously, but they love when you just give them attention. You can see the dogs are very engaged with their child.
Plus, don’t forget that the kids also get practice time reading, so it brutally slaughters 2 birds with 1 stone
