My impression is that using the title of the book (Wikijunior Big Cats) is an acceptable use of trademarks, but perhaps I'm wrong. How this sort of trademark applies to GFDL'd content is untested legally.
The GFDL is rather explicit with this, at least with regard to derivative works. Derivatives are supposed to "Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section of the Document)." Verbatim copies would presumably have the same title, but I suppose the GFDL doesn't explicitly state this.
However, [[Wikibooks:Copyrights]] states that "You may use the same title as the Wikibooks book and/or module(s) but trademark law prevents you from advertising the Wikibooks or Wikimedia names without our written permission."
