The Wise Wizard

Once upon a time, there was a wise and powerful wizard named Albus Dumbledore. He was the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and he was loved and respected by all who knew him.

One day, Dumbledore was walking through the forest when he came across a young boy who was lost. The boy was scared and alone, but Dumbledore was kind to him. He gave him food and water, and he led him back to his home.

The boy's name was Harry Potter, and he was an orphan. Dumbledore took Harry in and raised him as his own son. Harry loved Dumbledore, and he was grateful for his kindness.

When Harry was eleven years old, he learned that he was a wizard. Dumbledore took him to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where Harry would learn to use his magic.
