Leslie McGroarty

:"Hi, my name is Leslie McGroarty, and this is my cute spider friend, Itsy Bitsy."
::— Leslie at the beginning of the series' opening. 
Leslie McGroarty (aka The Most Famous City Girl in the World) is the titular main protagonist in the Itsy Bitsy Spider franchise, and the deuteragonist of the short film. She is a young city girl who is befriended by a spider named Itsy, and she is full of energy. Leslie commonly refers to herself as "the most famous city girl in the world".
==Appearance==
Leslie is a very cheerful and energetic tomboy with short black hair. She wears circular shaped glasses. She also wears her most iconic outfit, which was very similar to the vintage tomboy, including a light blue dress with puffed sleeves and a red belt, white socks and a pair of very shiny black Mary Jane shoes.
== Personality ==
Leslie is a cute, playful, tough, perky, joyful, loud and very tomboyish young city girl with a vivid imagination. Likewise, she loves things like bicycling (sometimes skateboarding), studying karate, bugs (especially spiders), getting herself dirty and something else boyish. She is also very good at BMX, playing rock music and video gaming. 
Despite her cuteness and playfulness, she has her mostly demonic temper, rather she's brutally beating up the bad guys (as she punching with her bare fists and kicking with her black Mary Jane shoes).
