Q: Can I legally sell a resource to accompany a novel study on an online store and refer to the actual title of the book?
I have created a lesson to accompany a novel to sell commercially to other teachers. Most book titles are not trademarked, but the novel title I created the lessons to accompany is listed as "trademarked". In the product, I refer to the title of the book multiple times and the activity pages that are included in the book have illustrations to accompany the book. The book title is "Wonder". I was trying to determine of the trademark protected the actual name of the book, or just the stylized script that the word is written in. To see examples of what I am referring to, go to www.teacherspayteachers.com and search for "Wonder". You will see a variety of novel studies for sale.
A:
I'm not sure I understand your question. Please explain a little more. Thanks,
