I am currently working on a rather large project and I am encountering some issues with the read more buttons. As someone who is fairly new to JavaScript, I am still grappling with the concepts. While I have managed to make the function work for the first button, it does not seem to work for the others. Could you please point out where I might be going wrong?
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#read").click(function() {
$(this).prev().toggle();
$(this).siblings('.dots').
toggle("read");
if ($(this).text() == 'Read More') {
$(this).text('Read Less');
} else {
$(this).text('Read More');
}
});
});<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

By definition, a sighthound is simply a dog breed that hunts primarily by sight and speed rather than by scent because of this they are sometimes refered to as Gazehounds. Because sighthounds hunt by sight, they need to have the speed and agility to keep
up with their prey in order to keep them in sight. Sighthound breeds typically have lean bodies, long legs, and a flexible back – they also have deep chests to support their unusually large hearts and lungs. To help you picture the typical sighthound
body, here is a list of breeds that are categorized as sighthounds:

<button type="button" id="read" class="btn btn-info btn-xs">Read More</button>While the script functions correctly for the first paragraph, it seems to falter for the second one. Can you shed some light on why this may be happening or suggest a better approach? Thank you
