See the book "Learn to program using python" if you want something on tree.

http://www.python.org/doc/Newbies.html
this has a lot of good links.  Hetland's tutorials are good.

http://www.ibiblio.org/obp/thinkCSpy/
this is another good book online for beginners and teaches general 
computer science basics.

Good luck
