[Tutor] What books do you recommend?

[Becky Mcquilling]

Is there a good Tutorial that you guys recommend, where you actually get a
useful exercise to try and do and then you can be walked through different
solutions?  I'm not a Programmer by trade, but I do a bit of coding for
Administrator type functions and have to debug stuff and starting to do this
on Python, so something not quite so incredibly dense would work better, I
just don't know where to start.
