A dog tells Oliver to stop talking to dogs and calls out the whole act.

1. "LOL Storytime - Stories for Kids" tells a story called "Talking to Dogs - A Funny Story for Kids" about Oliver and dogs. 2. Oliver is the main character, and Dara is the new kid who matters because she speaks four languages and challenges Oliver’s status. 3. The story asks what happens when Oliver, who already speaks English and Spanish, stops feeling special. 4. Oliver’s friends treat his bilingualism like a big performance and keep asking him to "say some stuff" in front of other people. 5. Dara arrives and says she speaks English, Spanish, Japanese, and Arabic, which immediately resets Oliver’s idea of what counts as impressive. 6. Oliver goes home and asks his mother whether he is still special if he only speaks one language, five words, or zero languages. 7. His mother keeps answering "Absolutely" and "you would still be the most special guy in the whole wide world." 8. Oliver decides to start learning Italian and tells everyone at school that he has begun language number three. 9. When people ask him to say something in Italian, he offers "It’s-a me, Mario" and gets no applause. 10. Dara says she is already working on her fifth language and has learned 100 words by watching movies. 11. Oliver tries to learn from an Italian movie and cannot keep up with the speed of the dialogue, asking, "How do you pause this thing?" 12. His mother reminds him that he once quit guitar lessons, which makes him worry that Italian lessons will end the same way. 13. The story shifts when Dara runs past Oliver with a huge dog chasing her and he tells her, "Empty your pockets." 14. Dara pulls out a half-eaten breakfast bar, throws it away, and the dog stops chasing her immediately. 15. Dara praises Oliver for knowing exactly what the dog wanted, and Oliver’s friend says he speaks dog too. 16. Oliver denies that he speaks dog, but the teacher later brings a dog to school and asks Oliver to interpret the dog’s sounds. 17. Oliver guesses that the dog wants a scratch behind the ears, and the dog settles down after the teacher tries it. 18. People start bringing their dogs to Oliver, and he keeps answering them until another big dog pins him down and tells him to stop talking to dogs. 19. The tone is playful and fast, with repeated jokes, direct dialogue, and a fairy-tale-style narrator voice. 20. Kids who like animal jokes and language gags will enjoy this; listeners who want realistic logic may skip it.
