Whales are different than most other ocean animals. Not only do they give birth to live young instead of laying eggs, but they are also warm-blooded. A whale's body temperature stays the same whether it's skimming the warm ocean surface or swimming deep down in the cold currents. Whales are one of the only mammals that live in the ocean.

I love apple pie. My grandma makes the best apple pie. It has an amazing crust that she makes from scratch. The crust is flaky and it feels like it could float away on your tongue. As for the inside of the pie, it has the perfect blend of sugars and spices with just a touch of vanilla.

Dylan wrote a special report on Braille. While doing his research, he learned that Braille was invented by a Frenchman named Louis Braille in the early 1800s. He also learned that Braille is a series of raised dots that work as a code for letters and numbers. He was surprised to find out that there are many books written entirely in Braille.
