Who is Roy G. Biv? Roy G. Biv is a name that stands for all of the colors of a rainbow, in their order of appearance:

R - Red is a primary color, and it sits at the top of a rainbow. Red is also the first color a baby can see. O - Orange is a combination of red and yellow. Did you know there is no word in the English language that rhymes with orange? Y – Yellow is a primary color, like red. Pure, bright yellow can make you dizzy and even a little sick! G – Green is a combination of yellow and blue. There are more shades of green than any other color. B – Blue is a primary color. It is the most popular color in the world, even with mosquitoes. Those little bugs are attracted to dark colors, especially blue! I – Indigo is a color a lot like blue. Some people believe it doesn’t deserve its own place on the list of rainbow colors. What do you think? V – Violet is the last color of the rainbow. It gets its name from the flower. There are over 500 varieties of violet flowers!
