I’m reading New Spring right now and it just keeps trying to drive home the point of just how small she (and Cairheinin in general) are. It described her uncle Laman as 5’11" being VERY tall for Cairheinin man. And that isn’t much taller than the average man today.

Edit: I have no idea where I saw this. I did a search on my kindle. I might be hallucinating reading the numbers.

Edit: I am not crazy, but it was her father, not uncle. Chapter 10

He was very tall for a Cairheinin man, just an inch short of six feet…
