Kevin è un ragazzo undicenne che si diletta di letture fantastiche per vincere la noia delle interminabili sere passate accanto ai genitori, appassionati di televisione ed elettrodomestici. Una notte vede uscire dall'armadio sei nani che posseggono la pianta del tempo con alcuni buchi, attraverso i quali è possibile passare da un'epoca all'altra della storia. Kevin salta all'interno della storia e della fantasia e, vivendo straordinarie avventure, conosce personaggi celebri e leggendari come Agamennone, Robin Hood, Napoleone Bonaparte, e viaggia a bordo del Titanic.
