Waffles and Pancakes are two little hamsters, owned by two boys named Danny and Griffin. In this third installment of Waffles and Pancakes, the two hamsters help their owners help others during Christmas time who are affected by Hurricane Sandy. They watch as Danny and Griffin, along with his sister and her boyfriend work to make others happy for the holidays. Then, because of their good deeds and kindness to others, they are chosen to meet Santa. Meet Santa! What a dream come true! Waffles and Pancakes get to meet Santa too. He gives them cute little hats. What Santa gives them is worthy of their good deeds, and Cindy Springsteen brings Waffles and Pancakes together to show what the true meaning of Christmas is. And she does it with adorable hamsters.

This is the perfect book to read on Christmas Eve in front of a warm fire with the kids. It is a really good book to read to kids throughout the Christmas season, to show them what the meaning of Christmas is really about, and inspire them to do something similar, even if it isn't on as large of a scale. I would read this to my little brother who loves Christmas, but can get caught up in the excitement of receiving presents. It is a great way to show the little ones the spirit of Christmas all while doing it through cute and fuzzy hamsters. The pictures that come with the book are also very good at helping move the story along. It is a very nice addition to this wonderful children's book.
