I wasn't sure how he'd react, but he cuddled right up with her. When she finished the book, he patiently waited for her to go put it back and get a new one. When she came back, he was wagging his little tail and couldn't wait for her to read to him again. Here he is "kissing" her hand as she was reading and her little sister looking on.
How sweet! He is helping children learn how to read??
