Actually, this documentation is aimed to programmers,
not to teach programming... ;-)

I find the book of Danny Goodman ,on HyperCard
programming, particulary good. You could read a
version of this book online, before purchasing at:

<http://books.iuniverse.com/viewbooks.asp?isbn=0966551427&page=fm1>
 
After the Goodman's book, you could read Dan Shafer's
book on Transcript programming.

Years ago, I printed the Rev Docs and distributed
the more than 2000 pages in four binds in the
following way: 
Bind 1> Transcript commands
Bind 2> Transcript Functions 
Bind 3> Transcript Keywords 
Bind 4> Diverse chapters from the Documentation...

I could add or take pages from these binds, so 
organization of code is easy.

Good luck and hard work!

Best
