A first grader was reading to my dog, BaileyRose.  Each time after reading two pages, he showed BaileyRose the pictures on those two pages.  He also put his four books on the floor and asked BaileyRose to pick the book she liked.  At the end of the session, he said,  “I  like reading to your dog.”   He was eager to read the next book BaileyRose had picked out for him.
