Brought to you by Penguin.This audiobook is narrated by Daisy May Cooper and includes an exclusive, bonus interview with Daisy and her Dad, Paul Cooper.The funniest memoir of 2021, written by the most relatable woman in the world - Daisy May Cooper, creator and star of BBC''s award-winning comedy This Country. Life hasn''t always been straightforward for Daisy May Cooper: growing up in rural poverty in Gloucestershire with her brother Chaz, she had to work a myriad of low-paid and unrewarding jobs just to make ends meet. Don''t Laugh, It''ll Only Encourage Her is the endearingly honest and hilarious memoir from the creator and star of award-winning BBC comedy This Country. When things were really bad, Mum would always say to me: ''Don''t worry, it will be a good read for your memoir one day.'' ''Mum, I auditioned to be a stripper by snogging a pole and was laughed off the stage by a bunch of topless dancers.'' ''Well that can go in the memoir.'' ''Mum, I spent all my student loan accidently on a penthouse suite in a fancy hotel in Marble Arch, now I face getting kicked out of drama school.'' ''That''s a good one for the memoir.'' ''Mum, sorry I''m late for dinner, I had to work late at my cleaning job because someone balanced a Quaver packet full of piss on the radiator in the boy''s toilets, and I didn''t realise until I picked it up, so I had to wash the piss off me in the sink while trying to learn my lines for that Call the Midwife audition I have in London tomorrow.'' ''Memoir...'' I have lived the most humiliating, ridiculous, screw-up of a life but Mum was right, you''ve just got to remember, sometimes the worst experiences make the most entertaining stories.''Thank goodness for gloriously silly Daisy May Cooper. Joyful, irreverent and totally uplifting'' The Times''The lockdown comedy queen'' Guardian© Daisy May Cooper 2021 (P) Penguin Audio 2021

Following her 2021 bestselling memoir Don''t Laugh, It''ll Only Encourage Her comes the laugh out loud follow-up Hexy Witch.
''My life''s changed a lot since This Country came out. Among all the amazing times there have been some stranger ones: the time a man climbed the wall into my garden and curled one out on the lawn while staring me dead in the eyes. Or that time I was visited by a pair of legs running around my bedroom as I watched Paw Patrol with my son. And I will never ever forget joining a coven, regressing to a past life, and attempting to have sex with a ghost.I know that talking about this stuff still feels very taboo. If you say you are a believer in certain circles it''s like announcing to a meeting of the Women''s Institute that you masturbate. Or dropping the C-bomb in front of a parish priest. But for as long as I can remember I''ve been fascinated by the unexplained. I''ve explored haunted houses, interrogated experts who claim they can communicate with the other side, and investigated paganism, which turned out to be a front for swinging.Things have always cracked me up but they''re about to get HEXY.
