Having looked at both, I'm not sure that there's a lot of connection. In fact, such a book would largely consist of sentences contining the phrase, "in javascript, unlike in Java...."
Javascript has a superficially similar structure, but it is almost entirely unlike java, and should probably be learned as its own language. If you have any exposure to functional languages, I suspect this would be more useful than Java.
