Lost and Found: A Heart of the City Collection

This second collection of Heart of the City comics by Steenz presents an entire school year of middle school life, featuring friendship, drama, and comedy. Heart Lamarr dreams of becoming an actor like her father, but hasn't seen him in years until he unexpectedly arrives on Christmas Eve with a gift—a reappearance that comes after Heart's acting ambitions face a setback. Charlotte and her friends conduct a high-tech investigation into missing Lost and Found items. A visit from Dean's cousin sparks a boys versus girls competition, and Charlotte befriends a shy new student she encounters at the soup kitchen where she volunteers. The collection follows Heart Lamarr, a girl from Philadelphia with aspirations of moving directly from middle school to Broadway stardom, as she navigates the adventures and daily dramas of her school life.
