there's lucy in the lion the witch and the wardrobe... except that's a wardrobe...
Tom Sawyer and Becky get lost in a cave, and think they've been there longer than they have.

I don't know if you got the answer or not, but I believe the character that you are looking for could be Don Quixote. In chapters XXII and XXIII of part II, Don Quixote's adventures in the cave of Montesinos is described. Don Quixote believes that three days passed while he was in the cave, but Sancho knows it was really only an hour. This is the only character in a book that I've read, that comes close to decribing what you are looking for.

Hope this helps. :D :D
