There is a record for the largest iceberg to calve off Antarctica. Others are smaller and all are at least as tall as the ice shelf from which they calve off. The Ross Ice Shelf, for example is between 50 and 500 feet high.
"Iceberg B-15 is the world's largest recorded iceberg. It measured around 295 kilometres (183 mi) long and 37 kilometres (23 mi) wide, with a surface area of 11,000 square kilometres (4,200 sq mi)-larger than the whole island of Jamaica. . . " from its Wikipedia entry.

How are glaciers and Icebergs alike?
A glacier is a frozen river, which forms in freezing conditions high up in mountains. As it reaches lower altitudes, it may melt. However, in some parts of the world, especially in Greenland and in Antarctica, the air is so cold that the glacier can reach the sea and remain frozen. When this happens, the glacier pushes the frozen water out into the ocean. Eventually, under the influence of wave action or internal stresses, a lump of ice breaks off. This process is known as calving. The lump of ice is now free to float away. It is called an iceberg.
