Programming Books

Hello /prog/. I'm here to ask a question. I want to learn how to program. I know all the basics like variables, loops, conditionals, and functions, but I still feel like I don't know shit. I started learning in an objected oriented language a year and a half ago, but I'm currently trying to learn functional programming with javascript. Can you recommend me a couple of books to read in order to become more familiar with programming? I know you are probably going to say SICP but is there anything a bit easier I can start with?

Still, the htdp curriculum has had an interesting measurable effect concerning female students. Several instructors reported that female students like the HtDP curriculum exceptionally well. In a controlled experiment, an htdp-trained instructor taught a conventional AP curriculum and the Scheme curriculum to the same three classes of students. Together the three classes consisted of over 70 students. While all students preferred our approach to programming, the preference among females was a stunning factor of four.
