[Chicago] A picture book that teaches Python basics

[Yogesh Riyat]

I'm taking basic/intro courses on Python on Coursera (the U of T Learning
to Program courses). Any idea how to get to an intermediate level? I think
this is done through projects? It would be great if there was a course that
was just focused on projects...or a book? Any guidance is appreciated.
It would be nice to learn on the job, but I'm in a chicken-egg dilemma
here. I don't have a CS degree or work experience. Ideally I'd like an
entry level role in finance/hedge funds.

Thanks in advance
Yogesh
