'How many times do I have to ask?'
Mum is tired of asking Tammy and Luca to help around the house - they are always busy with screens and games, or sleeping in. That is until Mum's words suddenly come to life and take over the house, launching the kids into action mode.
How many times will she have to ask now, after Tammy and Luca have seen what happens when they don't help out?
A story with a fun, universal message, in English and te reo Māori.
