Laura Carrot is one of the main characters from VeggieTales.
Biography
Laura first appeared in Are You My Neighbor? as one of the inhabitants of Jibber-De-Lot, along with her father and brother Lenny. She later became an employee at Mr. Nezzer's chocolate factory, driving her truck. After seeing her friends were in trouble, Laura decided to rescue them from Mr. Nezzer's hands.
She has long been the best friend of Junior Asparagus. In spite of the arguments they tend to get into, they'll always be there for each other. The Silly Song "Best Friends Forever" referred to one-off character Papaya Poppyseed as her best friend, though this was likely just for the song.
Filmography
Appearance
Laura is a carrot. In the early years, she had yellow hair of two pigtails with freckles. Later in the original version, she had a blue bow on top with no freckles and was given a blue dress. In VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, her eyes are light teal, she has freckles again, her pink bow and a pink dress. In Celery Night Fever and The VeggieTales Show, her design changed significantly: she wears a light green shirt with dark green stripes and two dark green buttons, along with a skirt, a headband, and glasses, all of which are blue. She also has a different hairstyle.
