According to the Elgin decorruption of Charlotte Pollard's diary The Dairy of an Edwardian Adventuress, a book about Cats in Hams was one of the several picture books which the Eighth Doctor kept aboard the TARDIS.
During the eight-year-old William Shakespeare's stay aboard the TARDIS, there was little of a literary nature to distract him due to his limited understanding of modern English except for the Doctor's small collection of picture books, which he read and re-read. The Doctor eventually discovered a game called Peter Pan Pop-O-Matic Frustration which he played with Shakespeare and Charley to keep everyone entertained while the efforts to return Shakespeare to his native time continued.

Portions of Apocrypha Bipedium [+]Loading...["Apocrypha Bipedium (short story)"] were taken from a version of Charley's diary which was affected by the Great 2107 AD Cock Up and subsequently restored to a good but imperfect standard by the Elgin decorruption, resulting in several spelling errors in these segments. Within this context, "Cats in Hams" are clearly identifiable as a reference to Cats in Hats and the unnamed book therefore a reference to The Cat in the Hat. All of the picture books referenced in the story were written by Dr Seuss with the mention of ham also serving as a reference to Green Eggs and Ham, another Seuss book.
