I stumbled across a free book last night (NOTE: It is free at the time when this post was written: 9/24/13, at 7am, Pacific Time):

WordPress Made Super Simple: How Anyone Can Build a Professional Website from Scratch with Little or No Experience (Super Simple Series) by Jack Davies and Sarah Wiley (Publication Date: September 19, 2013).

This might be helpful for any of you trying out WordPress for the first time.  I started to peruse it, but have not read it in full, so I am not 100% sure of the content.  However, if you read it and have any thoughts to share, please post comments!  It’s free and may be a good resource.
