Listen to Robert Munsch's hilarious story about a boy who just wants some peace and quiet in his room!

Matthew's family has a brand new trailer, which includes a brand new room for Matthew — a room of his own! Or so his mother says . . .

Sure enough, before he knows it, the relatives start knocking and his room soon becomes a hotel for cousins and aunts and uncles and dogs. Fed up, and sleeping underneath the trailer (which is the only place to get some privacy!), Matthew hatches a plan to get these guests OUT of his room, once and for all!

El reconocido narrador ROBERT MUNSCH ha escrito decenas de libros para niños, entre ellos: Paper Bag Princess y Mortimer. Él vive con su familia en Guelph, Ontario.
