Alice in Wonderland

Alice in Wonderland was the title of a book by Lewis Carroll from Earth, as well as the general name by which the book and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, were collectively known.
The titular character of the book was inspired by Alice Liddell, Lewis Carroll's neighbour in Oxford, (PROSE: The Wildthyme Effect) and according to one account, Wonderland indeed existed beneath the Earth's crust, inhabited by many of the characters described in the book. (AUDIO: Iris Wildthyme and the Land of Wonder)
The Sixth Doctor met the fictional protagonist of the book in the Land of Fiction. (AUDIO: Legend of the Cybermen)
The first edition of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was published by MacMillan on 4 July 1865. (PROSE: The Brakespeare Voyage)
The book began with the titular character falling down a large hole. (PROSE: Death to Mufl)
