Collection is for inmates, prison staff

TRAVERSE CITY -- Traverse City native Laura Hayes Lagana and her husband, Tom Lagana, have put together a collection of stories, poems, cartoons and quotations for inmates, prison staff and volunteers.

"Serving Productive Time: Stories, Poems, and Tips to Inspire Positive Change from Inmates, Prison Staff, and Volunteers" is published by Health Communications of Deerfield Beach, Fla., and includes two stories from a correctional officer in Washtenaw County as well as stories from inmates in Adrian, Kincheloe, Lapeer and Muskegon Heights.

The Laganas have also co-authored "Chicken Soup for the Volunteer's Soul," "Chicken Soup for the Prisoner's Soul" and "Serving Time, Serving Others." The couple hopes to send at least one book to every prison, jail and youth detention center in the U.S.
