Alice's Adventures in Wonderland would be described as a fairy tale by some, but not by others. The classification of books into different genres is not absolute, it is more a guide to assist in the description of those books, so whether Alice in Wonderland is a fairy tale is really a matter of opinion.
Fairy Tales can be described as stories which feature, amongst other things, talking animals, fabulous creatures and magical or fantastical events. They are also strongly associated with children, and usually either feature, or are told to them.
Alice in Wonderland can certainly be described in these terms. This children's story features numerous talking animals, and the Gryphon is a fabulous creature. The playing card characters are quite magical, or at least fantastical, and the strange events featuring such things as Alice's frequent changes in size and the transformation of the Duchess' baby into a pig, are all consistent with the type of impossible things featured in fairy tales.
Lewis Carroll himself described his book as a fairy tale. In a letter to a friend, discussing what title he should give his first Alice book, he said: P.S. I should be very glad if you could help me in fixing on a name for my fairy-tale, which Mr Tenniel (as a consequence of your kind introduction) is now illustrating for me, and which I hope to get published before Xmas. The heroine spends an hour underground, and meets various birds, beasts, etc. (no fairies), endowed with speech.
