I don't think so since Ron kids Harry in Divination in GoF about something
meaning that a "midget" in glasses is being born.  He also feels very short
in comparison to the other Triwizard Champions.  I think he's still short.
I personally think he's going to remain short ... but I'm told growth spurts
can go on much longer for boys than girls, so we'll see.
