'''Julie Takes a Stand''' is a bound book of the last two books of [[Julie Albright|Julie's]] [[Central Series]].

==Stories Included==

* ''[[Julie's Journey]]''
* ''[[Changes for Julie]]''

==Changes from ''Soaring High''==

* New, photorealistic illustrations are integrated; older illustrations return, but are mostly used as side vignettes. 
* A two-page spread is added to show Julie's bedroom; a single page is given for Julie's friends and Family, or the dramatis personae.
* Chapters One through Seven--the entirety of ''[[Julie and the Eagles]]''--are removed. Because of this, Chapter Eight--"Flying!"--removes the transitional references to ''Julie and the Eagles'' before starting the text of ''[[Julie's Journey]].''
* The images of Julie mounting Hurricane and being thrown into the river has the top from Julie's Peasant Top Outfit edited in instead of the yellow shirt from before. Later, when she is riding in the parade with her cousin April, the original top from [[Julie's Two-in-One Summer Outfit]] is replaced with the peasant top as well. 
* An image of Julie riding Hurricane again to shake her fear is reversed, but not edited. 
* An image of Julie in her "pioneer" dress is changed to a muted blue print instead of the dark yellow print from before. 
* Some descriptions (such as Julie being the new student last year and how she met Joy Jenner) and short scenes are removed.
* A scene where Julie and Tracy play basketball after Julie must attend detention is removed.
* The scene where Julie's note cards with her speech goes missing is removed; this means the short scene where Mark taunts her with the fact they are missing is also removed. 
* The scene where Julie is comforting Joy in the bathroom has the top of Julie's casual outfit colored blue, to more resemble her Tunic Outfit. 

===Changes from ''Julie: The Big Break''===

* [[Ivy Ling]] is not included in the dramatis personae. However she is included briefly in a scene in ''Changes for Julie.'' [[Coach Manley]] is also removed. Their images are replaced with [[Minor Characters in Julie's Series (A-G)#April|April]] and [[Joy Jenner]].
