Description   The Empress & The Silkworm by Lily Toy Hong A fictionalized account of the Empress of China's discovery, around 2700 B.C., that the cocoons of the worms in her mulberry trees were made of fine, shiny, silken thread which could be made into beautiful cloth. English.  Hard Cover.  For Ages 6 - 7. Author:  Lily Toy Hong grew up in a large Chinese-American family, the seventh of nine children.  Ms. Hong lives in Murray, Utah, with her husband and two young sons.  To prepare for this book, one evening she and her husband spent hours unwinding a cocoon around a chopstick, much as the empress might have done.
