You were increasing the height, you just couldnt see it.
If you want to zoom the text you need to place it inside a stretched
container.
Clicking on "a" (your code) does in fact increase "b"'s height. Clicking on
"b" stretches "c"

=======================
<canvas layout="axis: x">
<simplelayout axis="x"/>
<text fgcolor="black" fontsize="16"
        onclick="grow.animate('height',
                  200, 500, false)">
    aaaaa
  </text>
  <text id="grow" bgcolor="black" fgcolor="white" height="100"
fontsize="16"
        onclick="stretchme.animate('height',
                  200, 500, false);stretchme.animate('width',
                  400, 800, false)">
    bbbbb
  </text>
<view stretches="both" id="stretchme" bgcolor="blue">
  <text fgcolor="black" height="100" fontsize="16">
    ccccc
  </text>
</view>
</canvas>

I am trying to animate text.  In particular I would lke the bbbbb
section to grow vertically (and only vertically).  I want the bbbbb to
stretch.

I have tried quite a few things including adding stretches="height".
Sometimes my changes make the bbbbb disapear, but none of my changes
stretch the bbbbb when I click on the aaaaa.

Can anyone make a suggestion for what I am doing wrong.

I learned quite a bit from the "laszlo in 10 minutes" examples.  Where
can one find more examples like that?
