The Smallest Teenager
Standing at 23 inches tall - and weighing in at just 11 pounds - Jyoti Amge is no ordinary teenager. In fact, the 14-year-old is the world’s smallest girl, according to the Indian Book of Records.
Amge has a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia, which affects an estimated one out of every 25,000 births and occurs in all races. (Link)
It is amazing to see that someone is able to survive and enjoy life while being so small. Obviously, she has to face a lot of issues everyday, however she is able to turn the situation into something that she enjoys.
