Dead Poets Society is my favorite novel‚ it is actually a novel based after a movie. The movie was so successful they decided to make a novel after it. This assignment will be based after that novel.

Todd doesn’t speak much and you can tell that he is a very insecure young man. The plot begins with Todd being sent to the “Welton Academy”
