Discussed Trope for the appropriate portal to another world trope (Cool Gate, etc).?

I think Leaning on the Fourth Wall was what I was thinking of. Thanks!
In The Conference of the Birds from the Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children books, Jakob at one point comments that just once he wants to go someplace friendly and inviting, "like portals in kids books." I feel like there's a trope for this sort of fourth wall reference. Closest thing I've come up with is This Is Reality, but I feel like I've seen something before in the past which fits it better.
