That's pretty heavy if you're brand new to programming. A more gentle 
introduction would be 'How To Design Programs', which is also available 
online at http://www.htdp.org.

I'm using this book and Learning Python at the same time. Program logic 
translates well between Scheme and Python and they're both beautifully 
readable.
