Bana Alabed a Syrian girl that lives in Aleppo, where the war conflict is currently developing, can now escape from war and get into the Harry Potter world, thanks to J.K Rowling.
The 7 years-old girl has been updating about the war, and on Monday her mother tweeted to J.K Rowling wanting to know about the book. After they watch a Harry Potter movie. Rowling kindly responded and finally managed to send an ebook to the little girl who now can’t hide her joy. Heartwarming.
This is the tweet Fatemah, Bana’s mom tweeted, and J.K response:
@AlabedBana Bana, I hope you do read the book, because I think you'd like it. Sending you lots and lots of love xxx

People came together to give ideas to Rowling and help Bana.
Remember Aleppo is under siege that means nothing goes in nothing comes out she would have to down load a copy @AlabedBana @jk_rowling
