[Tutor] Python Book recomandation!

[Joseph Gulizia]

I've found "Snake Wrangling for Kids" http://code.google.com/p/swfk/  by
Jason Biggs an easy, fun and understandable free e-book.  I also have
started reading "Head First Programming" from O'Reilly which teaches
programming using Python.  I have others also but those two have been the
easiest to read.  YouTube also has many tutorials...some quite good.
