Overview
Have you ever noticed 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…
Walking around the streets and parks of most towns, you might notice that many dogs look a lot like their owners. However, Leonora's dog was nothing like her. In fact, they could not be more different! Leonora loved listening to opera. That's why she named her dog after her favorite opera, Fidelio. When Leonora and Fidelio went for a walk, everyone looked at them in a very strange way and started gossiping… “Here they come. They are nothing alike!", they said, laughing out loud at them. Two streets down lived Carmelo. His dog was nothing like him either. Totally different. Carmelo liked to make chocolates. He used to spend whole days coming up with the most daring recipes.
The thing is, Carmelo's dog was the spitting image of Leonora, and Leonora's dog was identical to Carmelo! Tired of people looking down on them, they decided to trade dogs and thus appear more normal. But just when the match was done and they were suppose to fit, all of them felt lonelier and different…

Todo el mundo les miraba muy raro cuando paseaban por la calle… «¡Pero si no se parecen en nada!», decían, riéndose a carcajada limpia de ellos. Dos calles más arriba vivía Carmelo. Y su perro Tampoco se le parecía en nada. En nada de nada. A Carmelo le gustaba hacer bombones. Solía pasarse días enteros inventando las recetas más atrevidas.
¡El caso es que el perro de Carmelo era clavado a Leonora, y el de Leonora era exacto a Carmelo! Cansados de que la gente los despreciara, decidieron intercambiarse los perros y así parecer más normales. Pero justo cuando deberían encajar, más solos y diferentes se sentían…
