Think Python - How to Think Like a Computer Scientist is one of my all-time favorites. Also anything by Green Tea Press, which is run by Allen Downey who is a boss. Great to read even if you know nothing of Python or programming in general.

For the more artistic, The Nature of Code by Daniel Shiffman is awesome. Good if you already know some JavaScript. Daniel is an amazing instructor and has tons of youtube videos to go along with everything else.
