Jandy NelsonMom has a massive sunflower for a soul so big there's hardly any room in her for organs.
About This Quote
This quote is a great example of how one small word can cause a huge impact. The word “massive” is quite strong and conveys a strong image. A sunflower has a giant, vibrant soul and we imagine that the soul of Mom must be enormous too! She has so much love to give, but there isn’t enough room in her for all of it! We also imagine that her organs are quite small and insignificant in comparison to the big, beautiful sunflower.
