If you read HoME i can't remember which one possible 10 then it has a whole essay on custumes and traditions of the elves. In this it states that elven children look just like mortals just slimmer and more graceful having more control over their bodies than humans. elves grow slower than humans, staying in the 'spring of youth' longer. so they could look 7 and be 20.

okay not having the book in front of me really doesn't help but it was basically that. Does it make sense? No it doesn't but you could get the book i think its no.10,or of course ask someone else to explain!

the only thing i remember really clearly was that elven children have two names and can pick a thrid themsleves when they're 7. that would be fun!!
