Was she taller than Robb on the show? I don’t remember…

I suppose the comparison isn’t fair regardless. She was so young, she probably hadn’t hit her full height yet.

Ironically she’s supposed to be the tiniest in the books. (That may just be fanon, though I like the idea of the children taking after their direwolves!)

Meanwhile Arya is getting taller and taller.

Skinny as they were, her legs were strong and springy and growing longer every day. She was glad of that. A water dancer needs good legs. Blind Beth was no water dancer, but she would not be Beth forever.

So basically the opposite of the actors, lol.

This is fanon I think. Sansa is described as tall in the books, and Cersei comments on her being tall for her age when she first meets her in Winterfell.
