I'm thinking of playing a mounted paladin charger sometime in the future, and I'd like to play something small so that I can ride indoors more easily. A strength penalty isn't the end of the world, but I'd like to avoid one if I can. Are there any small LA+0 races with no strength penalty? Or maybe LA+1 would be okay too.

+0 LA

Gully Dwarf: +2 Dex +2 Con -4 Int -4 Cha, small, 20 ft., rogue, humanoid (dwarf), dragonlance campaign setting pg.15

+1 LA

Goblin, Forestkith – small humanoid (goblinoid) (MM3) Climb 20 ft, +2 Dex, -2 Int, Discordant Frenzy, Tree Shape, Barbarian
Goblin, Snow – small humanoid (goblinoid) (Fr) Climb 20 ft, +2 Dex, -2 Int, -2 Cha, Fighter
Lizardfolk, Poison Dusk – small humanoid (reptilian) (MM3) +2 Dex, +2 Con, -2 Cha, Claws & Bite, Poison Use, Chameleon Skin, Hold Breath, Ranger
Mephling, Air – small humanoid (extraplanar) (PH) Fly 10ft, +2 Dex, -2 Int, +2 Cha, Breath Weapon, Bard
Mephling, Earth – small humanoid (extraplanar) (PH) Burrow 10 ft, +2 Str, -2 Dex, -2 Int, +2 Cha, Breath Weapon, Druid
Mephling, Fire – small humanoid (extraplanar) (PH) +2 Dex, -2 Int, +2 Cha, Breath Weapon, Sorcerer
Mephling, Water – small humanoid (extraplanar) (PH) Swim 30 ft, +2 Con, -2 Int, -2 Cha, Breath Weapon, Monk

For +1 LA i think, Poison Dusk Lizardfolk best choice.

This (http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75882/19546874/Master_Player_Race_List_Version_2.0) might be useful.
Search in your browser for small. It has other options than Bupu- I mean, Gully Dwarf. :)

EDITED: Here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=189980) is the link to a thread on this forum for +1 and +2 LA races. SolioFebalas did an excellent job filtering the races, so it's only if you are curious.
