When I imagine adult-Harry I always imagine him to be quite tall. Harry's
always described as "small and skinny", but who wouldn't be in his position?
Before he came to Hogwarts he had never gotten a decent meal in his whole
life and the malnutrition pobably kept him rather small.

I think that in a year or so Harry will start to catch up with the other
boys of his age and grow quite a lot - especially if he can finally live
with Sirius and doesn't have to return to the Dursley's.
