That's a great book, as is Head First Java. Java is a good language to get into if you're trying to learn OOP because it will practically force you to use the priciples of OO. In fact, something that helped me see the bigger picture was working in other languages. You start to think of what you write as solutions to problems, instead of lines of code, and that helps get your brain into the realm of design patterns.
(Note: I can't code Java to save my skin, but the little I have learned has helped with the other languages I do work in.)
