I had to look that one up. It rang a bell but couldn’t put my finger on it. Jabberwocky!

There is a Sci Fi short story called (I think) The Jabberwocky. A scientist from the far far future carelessly transports some “toys” back to present day America. Some kids find them. Mess around with them. Eventually “figure it out”. and disappear into some higher dimension space as their father watches in horror.

At the end we find out the scientist also transported some toys back to a girl named Alice. Alice never “figures it out” but it does make her seriously weird. Lewis Carrol writes down some of her weirdness.
