World's Smallest Girl Starts School by mukina2: 9:25am On Sep 24, 2012
The world's smallest girl Charlotte Garside took a massive step this month after starting her first day at primary school.

The five-year-old, who is just 68cm tall and weighs less than 9lbs, is no bigger than a newborn and smaller than her favourite teddy.

Last week, she joined kids her own age in the classroom for the first time.

The day marked a milestone for proud parents Scott Garside and Emma Newman who have battled to give their daughter as normal a life as possible.

Charlotte was born with a form of Primordial Dwarfism so rare doctors don't even have a name for it.


But despite being warned she could die before the age of one, Charlotte has developed into a boisterous and inquisitive girl

Emma, 30, of Withernsea, East Yorks, said: 'Although Charlotte is a one-in-a-million baby with some health problems, she is not the sort of person who will fade into the background.
Unique: Charlotte was born with a form of Primordial Dwarfism so rare doctors don't even have a name for it


Defying the doctors: Despite being warned she could die before the age of one, Charlotte has developed into a boisterous and inquisitive girl

'She may be small but she has a massive personality and wants to do everything a normal five-year-old does.












'She is very inquisitive and the school have already told us she has a learning age of a three-year-old, which is higher than we thought.

'Of course, I was worried she could get hurt by the other children, but she has her own tutor look after her and she's not as fragile as you'd think.'

When she was born, Charlotte weighed less than 2lbs, measured 25cm and had to be dressed in dolls' clothes.

See how she is loved by her parents despite her deficiency. She is lucky she is not a Nigerian, they would have killed her after birth and say it is the work of witches and wizards or she is an ogbanje (evil child)

Why do people like you always say rubbish about Nigeria at any given chance. Do you know how many Nigerian parents have children who have worst physical conditions than the girl in question? But their parents still love them and cater for them despite how bad the economy is. I grew up in the north.i have seen different kind of kids with worst physical conditions.Trust me this girl should thank God for her life..
The woman who was caught on video the other day strangling her kid..was she Nigerian? A girl was born in sokoto without legs and hands.. She is now schooling.. I guess stuffs like that don't catch your interest except the reverse...
I am sure if you walk around Nigeria and do your research(not on the internet),you will eat back your words.. I am not saying Nigerians are saints,but people like you should stop trying to make us look like the number 1 "most wicked people on planet earth".. The fact that the country is going tru hard times doesn't mean the citizens are monsters while the rest of the world are saints...
