Coming to the World

Alice is a young girl with a big imagination in Disney's Alice in Wonderland. After she falls down a hole while chasing the White Rabbit, she finds herself in a strange world where nothing is what it seems to be, and she must go on a journey to return home.

The Chipettes are a fictional group of anthropomorphic chipmunk singers first appearing on the cartoon series Alvin and the Chipmunks in 1983. In this cartoon and related materials, the Chipettes served as female counterparts to the title characters around which the series was based. As the series progressed, the Chipettes became featured characters in their own right, starring in several episodes in which their male counterparts did not appear. The title of the show was changed from “Alvin and the Chipmunks” to simply “The Chipmunks” in 1988 to reflect this reality. In the cartoon series and the accompanying feature films, all of the Chipettes were voiced by their creator, Janice Karman. Karman also wrote and voiced the Chipettes' dialogue on all of their studio albums, while studio singers such as Susan Boyd, Shelby Daniel, and Katherine Coon provided their singing voices. In the Japanese language version of the feature film The Chipmunk Adventure, the voices for the Chipettes are provided by Mayumi Suzuki, Mika Doi, and Ikue Ōtani.
