Celebrated author J.K. Rowling just bestowed one of her devoted readers the gift of magic in the form of specially inscribed Harry Potter books and other special paraphernalia.

Rowling's generosity was in response to a heartfelt letter written by Kulsum, a 12-year-old student from the northern Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, who was inspired by the author's life and achievements.



The school's director, Sabbah Haji, shared the girl's essay on Twitter and tagged Rowling in the hopes the British author would be moved by the young girl's words.




Not only did Rowling read the letter, she responded and asked for Kulsum's address so she could "send her something."




And the author delivered on her promise.


The contents in the package included a personalized handwritten note along with other Potter merchandise for Kulsum. But Rowling sent other Potter goodies to Kulsum's classmates as well.

Twitter was charmed by Rowling's act of kindness.






People were moved by the wonderful Twitter interaction and the surprise that made Kulsum's day.


The benevolent scribe checked in and was relieved to hear her special delivery was a success. (Did she not enlist the services of the Owl Post?)

It's pretty well known that Rowling adores her fans and often makes their day by sending them special gifts.

Just recently, she responded to a single father who explained that reading Harry Potter together with his daughter brought them closer together.



Rowling proves that even muggles like herself are capable of great magic.

Matrix co-creator Lilly Wachowski has opened up about what it's been like to see her magnum opus The Matrix be co-opted by the far-right.

Anywhere you go in online spaces for the past 10-15 years, right-wing weirdos talk about being "red-pilled," a reference to the film's plot point in which lead character Neo is offered a red pill that will enlighten him to the realities of the systems ruling our lives, or a blue pill that will allow him to stay ignorant.

Kids Can Press, the Canadian publisher behind the beloved Franklin children's books, condemned Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in a statement after he shared an AI-generated image of Franklin the Turtle to justify his attacks on alleged drug-smuggling vessels in the Caribbean.

Hegseth's original meme, which he inexplicably captioned "for your Christmas wish list," features a doctored book cover titled Franklin Targets Narco Terrorists and shows Franklin, the protagonist of the popular Canadian children's book series authored by Paulette Bourgeois and illustrated by Brenda Clark, firing a bazooka from a helicopter at boats in the water below.
