    A lovely letter from JK Rowling to a fan of Harry Potter who suffered a very difficult upbringing. What a classy woman!

    I'm not sure if I'm going to read the original letter, but this is a beautiful response. It's nice to know that J.K. Rowling still keeps in touch with certain fans and makes them feel better through her work and in this instance, this letter.

    I still remember the first time I experienced Harry Potter (the audio books narrated by the awesome Stephen Fry) and it's lasted with me ever since.

    When I wrote to Ms Rowling I only got the form response, but the letter I sent her was nothing like Sacia's. I still hope for a personal letter from the wonderful Jo!
