Including the trials and tribulations of the King of Pop, this work examines the complete history of Michael Jackson's life as he becomes the modern-day Peter Pan! The second story, linked to the first, pertains to the fight between Prince and Michael Jackson. The work highlights some important moments of Prince's and Michael Jackson's life experiences. The plot involves song and music battles between the two superstars, including some funny moments, which should bring great laughter to the story. It's a very fun piece ending in drama.
