If you’re a few inches taller or shorter than the average height, it seems that the world is conspiring against you. To highlight this universal truth, artist Sara Pocock has created a series of illustrations that focus on the annoying problems both giant and pixie girls face nearly every day.
Sara is no stranger to this kind of work, either. After a lifetime of drawing on living room walls and doodling on notebook paper, Sara decided to capitalize on her interest and moved to Minneapolis, where she earned her BFA in animation at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 2006. Since then she has worked as an animator for Cartoon Network, BuzzFeed, and other notable names.

Tall girls problems
Short girl problems
For short girl you forgot the sunblockers in the car that never cover the sun because you're too short
I have every single one of the short people problems and the car sun block problem. One time I was in a hotel in Germany and I literally saw only my forehead and up in the mirror. Sigh...

YES to the tall girl problems. Though don't be embarrassed if you're taller than the guys! There's nothing wrong with that. A few things I would add: Jeans/pants are always either too short or waaaay too baggy. Being attacked by ceiling fans/low hanging lights. Guys' eyelines being right on boob level with you. Having trouble finding dress shoes that are big enough. Trying to squeeze into tiny restroom stalls.
My teenage son's girlfriend is about six inches taller than he is (and a good foot taller than me) he still is growing but I doubt he catches up to her. They don't care one bit! Love is Love

Agh! The seatbelt in the neck is a real pain!! I have to wrap a thin scarf around it to prevent nasty chaffing!
In my country it is recommended for the children and short people to sit on a safe pillow that don't slide easily on a car seat . That way the seat belt does not damage the throat in the car crash.
