Even though Mrs Granger a fifth grade teacher was small,what made her look tall

Mrs. Granger may be small in stature but she has a big personality. Mrs Granger is a Language Arts teacher with quite a formidable reputation. She holds the dictionary sacred and believes it is the most important book in the world that everyone should own. Her mission is to extend the vocabulary of every fifth grade student that passes through her classroom. She has a tendency to over-react to any challenge to the status quo of the dictionary which is why she was so draconian about the word "frindle".
