There are lots of resources out there for learning Python.
You didn't mention if you have programming experience in other languages.
I've heard a number of good things about the book,
"Hello World! Computer Programming for Kids and Other Beginners",
http://www.amazon.com/Hello-World-Computer-Programming-Beginners/dp/19339884...
It's a python specific intro to programming.
There are also free video resources such as this Google Python class which was developed by a Stanford professor:
"Welcome to Google's Python Class -- this is a free class for people with a little bit of programming experience who want to learn Python. The class includes written materials, lecture videos, and lots of code exercises to practice Python coding."
