in reply to Beginning Perl or Learning Perl?

See the Mojolicious documentation:

Learning Perl

If you are new to Perl, we recommend Learn Perl in 2 hours 30 minutes for a quick introduction, or the Modern Perl book, freely available in many formats. Both are excellent introductions to the language. For more books and documentation, check out learn.perl.org.

    Hm, Modern Perl is a very good book (and available for free), but I do not think it is the best choice as a first book for someone really new to Perl.

    In my humble opinion, "ovid"'s Beginning Perl is very good for a real beginner. Learning Perl is also great, just make sure to pick the latest edition. You can't go wrong with either of those two.
