Kindl is a walking, talking symbol of light whose adventures are a blend of historical fact or legend. As Kindl meets events like Groundhog Day, of the symbolic Statue of Liberty and the Olympic torch, he comes away with a deeper understanding of their significance. It's almost as though Kindl is in search of trivia about the events as much as having a good time. These adventures follow the 3E's to Reading: Education, Entertainment and Enjoyment with many books having music as well as stories based on events.

Kindl is chased by oodles of hootls and bootls that capture the moodl beams as he searches for other symbols of light on his family tree. He trips into a pumpkin patch where mournful pumpkins explain the legend of why they need faces carved on them. In his determination to solve their dilemma, he meets up with Mindl on the same mission caught in Spindl the spider's web in a barn. Together they carved lanterns to ward off hootls, bootls, spookls and gooblins delight, and learn that there are many ways to celebrate holidays like Halloween.
