Answers:
56" tall and 66 # is small for a 13 year old; it's in the bottom 5%!. Growth spurts for boys often don't happen until they are 15!.
This is concerning you and affecting your happiness!. You should consider visiting a doctor to see if you are a candidate for Human Growth Hormone injections!. I had a boyfriend once who had those for a while when he was a teenager and they added a couple of inches but he was still shorter than average as an adult but I thought he was cute anyway!.
Other than that there are some things that might help as you approach your growth spurt!. Eat a little more, especially protein like meats!. Don't get too into it because as a habit for your whole life a meat heavy diet is a bad thing!.
To give the meat something to do while you're waiting for your growth spurt, exercise!. Do sit ups, pull ups, push ups and run a couple of miles!. Try to do muscle exercises about 30 or 40 minutes every other day and cardiovascular exercises like running or swimming laps 30 or 40 minutes on the other every-other-days!.
It will help you put on weight and muscle because muscle weighs more!. The extra calories will help you grow but without exercise they'll just make you grow wide!.
Exercise also makes you feel less depressed while you are waiting!.
You can try protein shakes and stuff like that but extra protein will probably help!.
And go ahead and ask your doctor about the HGH!. He'll have other suggestions he can give too!. And if he doesn't want to help you with suggestion, change doctors!.
Good luck, eat more steak!. Oh, and oddly there's a lot of protein in legume-type beans and vegies and it can be made more active in your system if you eat them with orange juice to drink!. It releases the protein and catalyzes them!.
