It depends how comfortable you are with JavaScript. If you're fairly 
experienced with JavaScript, reading http://coffeescript.org/ should get 
you a pretty good overview of the language and how it differs - enough to 
get you started. You can implement simple hello-world examples written for 
Node, which will be good experience transposing from one language to the 
other.

If you'd like to go a bit more in depth, there's a pretty good Peepcode 
screencast: https://peepcode.com/products/coffeescript

OTOH, if you're new to the JavaScript world, you might need a slightly 
slower introduction. I don't have great suggestions here, so I'll leave 
that to others chiming in.
