I just finished my first year of an environmental toxicology grad program and we used Casarett and Doull's "Toxicology: The basic science of poisons" for our year long, grad level Tox course. Depending upon what you want to cover, this book may be too deep on the tox. Another book I've seen but never used in a class was "toxicological chemistry and biochemistry" by Manahan. This book is written at a lower level than C&D. A third book our department used for our Fate of chemicals in the environment course was "Environmental Chemistry" by Manahan.
Also, SETAC might have a useful book on their page ( https://www.setac.net/setacssa/ecssashop.shopping_page) Hope this helps!
