I think the better analogy is: 

_Beginning Perl_ : _Programming Perl :: K&R : _The Standard C Library_ by PJ 
Plauger

_Programming Perl_ will teach you a lot, but it's IMO more of a comprehensive 
reference work than something designed to teach the language. 

N'th-ing Beginning Perl and Modern Perl, FWIW.
