Several, although not just OOP.
Most of the Python books available(including mine :-) have
OOP sections. There are lots of general OOP books too
- Booch etc... that teach OO principles.

You could try my online tutor which covers Python and QBASIC
It has a chapter on OOP and a Case study which includes 
objectifying a procedural app:

But its designed for absolute beginners and is likely too 
elementary. The other source for all things OO is the
cetus-links web site..
