For building, I like the Constructopedia that I found somewhere on or
from the lego.com site.
I learned the programming from the tutorial that comes with the NXT.
There are also videos online. I find that the videos drive me insane to
go so slowly. The kids I have worked with seem to react the same way.
Most do not have the patience to sit through all the videos.
I like the following books:
The Unofficial Lego Mindstorms NXT Inventors Guide by Davide J. Perdue
Lego Mindstorms NXT-G Programming Guide by James Floyd Kelly
I really liked the old version of this book with RCX; it goes deeper
than the others. I haven't purchased the NXT edition, but I probably
will get it this season:
Building Robots with Lego Mindstorms NXT by Mario Ferrari
