    It’s definitely an early example of the genre, but stuff like A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court pre-dates it.

      Don’t want to sound too “Acktually”-ish, but usually the father of the genre is considered Alice in Wonderland, which pre-dates both.

        I was just giving an example to refute the claim that The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was the first of its kind. I never claimed that my example was actually the first.
