[taos-glug] tutorials for Guile or Scheme

What are people using to learn Guile and Scheme basics?

The Gnu Guile tutorial at 
http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/docs/guile-tut/tutorial.html is minimal with 
respect to Guile and Scheme.  I like it, however,
because I can draw pictures.

There's another tutorial, which got installed from my Debian distribution CDs.
I access it with "info guile-tutorial" from the shell prompt.

Also, online, there is "Teach Yourself Scheme in Fixnum Days" at
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/dorai/t-y-scheme/t-y-scheme.html   I liked this
one.

And there is http://www.htdp.org/  but when I tried it, somehow it didn't
appeal to me.

The book "The Structure and Interpretations of Computer Programs" is
tough going, which is why we're going to do it as a group.

You can look for other material at www.schemers.org.   I'm ambivalent
about "The Little Schemer."   I worked through most of it, but . . .
You should look at my copy before you buy.
