He was worried about them not understanding what he was reading to them....he loves ham radio and AARL, and is trying to get his shortwave license....I told him they dont need to understand, they would just be thrilled to be hearing his voice, just knowing he is reading to them....so he does that.....and those dogs sit with erect ears and listen to everything he reads!!!! That thrills him to death, he thinks they DO understand what he is reading, and he remembers what he has read! I have even heard him going over test questions with each one! Two birds with one stone!

Wow that is wonderful idea. Reading this story put a big smile on my face picturing him reading and the girls listening. Would be a cute picture.
