About this ebook

For fans of box-office smash hit Michael (2026), discover Michael Jackson’s most personal work, full of intimate reflections and illustrated with his own photographs and paintings.


‘I wrote a book called Dancing the Dream. It was more autobiographical than Moonwalk . . . It wasn't full of gossip and scandal and all that trash that people write, so I don't think people paid much attention to it, but it came from my heart.’

Dancing the Dream is one man's hauntingly beautiful, provocatively personal view of the world around us, and the universe within each of us. Whether his prose and poetry focused on creativity, the people that surrounded him, or the plight of the noble elephant, his observations and concerns all illustrated his belief that trust, love and faith are the foundation stones for a life well lived.

Full of Michael Jackson's personal writings, essays, poetry and over one hundred glorious photographs, drawings, and paintings from his own collection, this book is a must have for all fans of an incredible, inspiring man who died as he lived – dancing his dream.


'People ask me how I make music. I tell them I just step into it. It's like stepping into a river and joining the flow. Every moment in the river has its song. So, I stay in the moment and listen.'
MICHAEL JACKSON (1958 - 2009)
