Tom walked to the door and picked up the letter that Dumbledore had dropped. He opened it. Inside was a piece of paper, it read,

Tom was excited, he'd never been to a magical school before. Come to think of it, he'd never even heard magic was real until now. He jumped up and down, all over his bedroom.
This is it he thought my one chance to prove that I'm worth it. I'll be in a place with people like me. Tom couldn't wait until the day he got to go to hogwarts!
