Chronicles of Narnia is a better fit. Diana Wynne Jones wrote one. There's like ... lots more. This was THE young adult genre for a couple decades.
Those are British though. Though I'm sure there are also American examples.
Peter Pan, Alice in wonderland, and The Iron Man were also all written by UK authors. Although I haven't read The Iron Man for a very long time so I can't remember how closely the Iron Giant movie uses the source material.
British authors, but extremely popular in the US. I guess we could call these Anglo-isekai?
