Jenna "Jetta" Handover is one of the characters in Clifford the Big Red Dog (2000 TV series). Although she has the same age as Emily Elizabeth (being born eight months after Emily-Elizabeth), she is also one of Emily Elizabeth's best friends,
Voiced by Kath Soucie.
Personality[]
Jetta is Mac's owner, and Emily Elizabeth's and Charley's friend who is often seen as a spoiled brat and is usually oblivious to other people's feelings. She is often shown leading parades and competing in talent shows as a majorette. Her mother owns one of the island stores and seems somewhat oblivious to Jetta's uncaring and bratty behavior. She often appears to dislike Clifford, criticizing him for taking massive dog trouble caused by his big size, but occasionally she will show that she really likes him too.
Jetta can be the centre of the attention and hates being ignored, as shown in Baby Makes Four.
Appearance[]
Jetta is an Italian-American girl. In seasons 1 and 2, Jetta wears a yellow shirt with a green hoodie tied around her neck, blue pants, and pointed yellow shoes. She has long black hair in a ponytail wrapped around in a light yellow. Sometimes, she wears a Yellow/Green swimsuit.
In season 3, Jetta no longer has a hair bow and she now wears a yellow short-sleeved button shirt, dark brown belt, blue jean shorts and dark red hiking boots.
