I used Head First Python, which does what you want, and then I took it a bit further with Gray Hat Python: Python 
Programming for Hackers and Reverse Engineers.

Subject: [Pauldotcom] Beginner's Python Book Or Website Suggestion

My son, some of you have met, is showing an interest in Python programming.  He has never done any sort of programming 
in the past, however I told him that we would learn Python together.  I have very little programming experience myself, 
but I have worked in Python in the past.  Mostly either reworking something already written or very small targeted 
scripts for a certain task.

What would be a good book , or website, that we can sit down at the kitchen table to learn Python side by side?

I thinking something which creates short bursts of code that has a usable product in the end might be better, this way 
he doesn't get bored and decide to quit before he realizes the power of Python.

Thanks everyone!

Robert
