　　Whales are the largest animals on this earth．Whales can be bigger than elephants．Whales can be bigger than some houses．Even a baby whale can be huge(very big)．A baby whale can weigh as much as a ton when it is born．That's a very great baby!

　　How can whales be so big when they are born? Why are they able to grow so much larger than any other animal? The answer is really very easy．Whales can be big because they live in the water．The water helps to hold them up．Land animals can't be as big as the biggest whales．If a land animal got too big, its legs wouldn't be able to hold it．If a bird got too big, it wouldn't be able to fly．No animal can be too big as a whale．A whale can still float(漂浮)though it is very big．
