    The second edition of Dyslexia Advocate! How to Advocate for a Child with D= yslexia within the Public Education System offers an updated toolbox of les= sons about education advocacy processes. This makes it a key recommendation=
    for libraries strong in education, health, and social issues subjects.

    Kelli Sandman-Hurley focuses on how parents and advocates can understand an=
    d apply US laws to obtain the right educational opportunities for a dyslexi=
    c child. Case studies and examples cement lessons on techniques that work, = helping those unfamiliar with advocacy processes to absorb the strategies, = language, and approaches to gaining services and support from the education=
    al system and the legal structures governing it.

    Libraries should consider Dyslexia Advocate! a key acquisition for any coll= ection strong in education rights issues, dyslexia, or child education advo= cacy.
