Summary

Walking around the streets and parks of most towns, you might notice that many dogs look a lot like their owners. Or perhaps it’s the other way around: do the owners all look like their dogs? But there are some exceptions . . .
Scented with chocolate and musical notes, this delightful story dares you to fearlessly forgo the opinions of others and invites you to experience the freedom of accepting yourself as you are.

Si uno va andando por las calles y los parques de la ciudad, verá que todos los perros se parecen a sus
dueños. ¿O tal vez sea al revés, y son los dueños los que se parecen a sus perros? Pero hay excepciones...

Una divertida historia aderezada con chocolate y notas musicales, que invita a experimentar la libertad de aceptarse y atreverse a ser uno mismo, sin miedo a la opinión de los demás.
