K Rowling has written to a teenager who found strength in the words of a Harry Potter character after her whole family was shot dead.
Cassidy Stay, 15, from Houston in Texas, was grazed by a bullet in the July attack but survived by playing dead.
Her parents, two younger sisters and two younger brothers were all murdered.
Despite having a fractured skull, she was able to call police and alert them that the gunman was planning to shoot other relatives.
A Facebook campaign has now led to Rowling sending the teenager a handwritten note in purple ink, a wand, an acceptance letter to Hogwarts, a list of school supplies and a signed book.
"We can confirm that JK Rowling was in touch with Cassidy Stay, however, the contents of the letter remain private," a spokesman for the author told the Telegraph.
Asked about whether the two would meet, she said: "We wouldn't comment on that but [Cassidy's] is a remarkable story."
That was a kind thought.
