Hello,
I learned Mathematica using using the book
Applied Mathematica: Getting Started, Getting It Done
by William T. Shaw & Jason Tigg
For high school students & college freshmen, I like the book
The Student's Introduction To Mathematica by Bruce & Eve Torrence
Recently, I like the book Mathematica Navigator by Heikki Ruskeepaa
For graphics (and the vector math behind it all) you can't
beat the book Mathematica Graphics by Tom Wickham-Jones.
For advanced programming, you have David Wagner's
Power Programming with Mathematica
On the cheap (but still good) is
Schaum's Outline of Mathematica by Don Eugene
Good Luck
John C. Erb

Sabrina,
In theory, everything you really need can be found in the Help Browser,
but... there's a lot of good material in the Information Center at the
Wolfram web site, specifically here
http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/TechNotes/
and more specifically at these links:
http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/TechNotes/Mathematica/FrontEnd/
http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/TechNotes/Mathematica/Programming/
If you're taking a course in which you're using Mathematica, you may
want to look for material directly related to that subject.
