Appearance
Jane Read is depicted with shaggy brown hair and wears a pink sweater over a white shirt, blue jeans, and white shoes with blue bottoms. Originally, she had a long snout and was based upon an actual aardvark with the rest of her family in Arthur's Nose. She and the other aardvarks were redesigned in Arthur's Eyes that was published three years later. In the '80s, she and the other aardvarks had their snouts gradually shortened until it became flat. In the early books before the cartoon, she wore different clothes of different colors.
