[quote=Anonymous]Two books for kids and one for adults. Have a son who is in the 30th% -- who has many boys a full head taller in his early elem class -- and a 5'8'' DH and I'm 5'3''. My husband's been 'concerned' about this from day one, with his experience feeling 'less than' as a shorter boy. Doing activities like tae kwon do, even boxing (situations where he can be a little 'rough' for his stature) and even soccer doesn't necessarily require height. Swimming isn't bad. Guitar (has some cool factor for many boys). Emphasize that there are a lot of things that can be good about being small... We're trying too. :) https://www.amazon.com/Heart-Over-Height-Nate-Robinson/dp/1483413039/ref=wl_mb_wl_huc_mrai_1_dp https://www.amazon.com/Land-Giants-My-Life-Basketball/dp/0316101737 https://www.amazon.com/Size-Matters-Affects-Happiness-Success-ebook/dp/B004H1U2I8/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1471877202&sr=8-14&keywords=size+matters+book [/quote]
