Short Stories. Ox-Tales: Air is one of four original collections, featuring stories by leading writers. Each of the writers has contributed their story for free in order to raise money and awareness for Oxfam. The Four Elements provide a loose framework for the stories and highlight the key areas of Oxfam's work: water projects (WATER), aid for conflict areas (FIRE), agricultural development (EARTH), and action on climate change (AIR). An afterword, at the end of each book, explains how Oxfam makes a difference, and in buying this book, you'll be a part of that process, too.
