==Synopsis==
Donald and Goofy lead Sora to the [[Gummi Ship]]. While marveling in the ship's features, he is stopped by two chipmunks. Donald introduces them as Chip and Dale, the ship's mechanics. As they enter the cockpit, a cricket garbed in grand captain attire, introduces himself as Jiminy Cricket. The Gummi Ship blasts off, shortly arriving at a [[Wonderland|new world]].


==Story==
The trio literally fall down a hole into this new world, where they see a White Rabbit. This White Rabbit hurries past them, mentioning how he is late. Donald stands up, telling the group to follow the rabbit.
While excitingly exploring the [[Gummi Ship]], [[Sora]] is scolded by the ship's mechanics, [[Chip and Dale]]. In the cockpit, he also meets [[Jiminy Cricket]]. When they set off, Sora is amazed by the view. Soon, they arrive at [[Wonderland]], and Sora, [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]] fall down a rabbit hole. The [[White Rabbit]] stomps on Donald's head and runs off, claiming he is late. Annoyed, Donald declares they will follow him.

I have never actually read the legit book-->
