Overview

After my parents separated, my mom and I moved into my grandparents home. During this change in my life, my grandpa gave me very special gifts. They were not of material value, but rather gifts of kindness, love and imagination. Through dozens of letters that were left for me inside a small, white mailbox, my grandpa created a magical world as seen through the eyes of a wise old woodchuck named Woody. These letters, which often arrived every day, provided me with a sense of hope and expectation. Stories that captivated me as a four-year-old are now valuable life lessons. The adventures of Woody and his friends help me to cherish my childhood and keep the spirit of Grandpa close to my heart. Beth

About the Author

Charlie Costello was born in 1920 in Rochester, New York. As a youth, he explored and enjoyed the wonders of nature and wildlife. After military service in World War II, Charlie entered the field of agriculture—first in farming and then as manager of the Wayne County office of the US Department of Agriculture, Stabilization and Conservation. His work involved conservation practices and administration of federal assistance to farmers. His thirty years of dedicated commitment were recognized in 1982 when Charlie received the national award for outstanding service. Charlie and his wife, Elaine, lived in a big farmhouse surrounded by orchards in Sodus, New York, for over thirty-two years. Here, they raised their six daughters and welcomed twelve grandchildren. After retirement, Charlie’s love of nature continued and he entertained his daughters and grandchildren with walks through the orchards and exciting tales of wildlife. His vivid imagination led him to create stories with colorful and interesting animal characters. Included in these stories were subtle life lessons. Charlie went home to his Creator in 2006. His passing left a painful void in the family, but his legacy of love of nature, inspiration, and respect for all God’s creatures lives on.
