"Happy happy" er en roman om 13-årige Ubbe, der ved et tilfælde får et megadyrt golfsæt foræret og ikke tør fortælle om det til sin far. Det bliver starten på en rejse frem og tilbage mellem Vestvejen og kvarteret med "de rige svin". Ubbe må balancere mellem løgne, fordomme og tegn fra både horoskoper og mønsterbrydere. Mette Vedsø skriver hjertevarmt og humoristisk om klasseforskelle og om at være bange for at såre andre, turde stå ved sig selv og sige fra over for de mennesker, der betyder allermest.
