Here is a generic answer, but I love the book Programming Perl. Written by Wall, it is the best source for Perl programming. I also own Learning Perl (also O'Reilly) which is a good place to start.
I think the best way to learn any language is to just figure out something to do and the discover how to do it. Just get your hands dirty. I program Perl and Java proficiently, and I have written hacks in C & C++. In all of the cases when I came in contact with the language I had a specific goal in mind and set out to discover what modules or libraries or objects (whatever) that I needed to do the job. Write some code, write some more code, fix the code, break the code, fix again, etc. I have always hated the "Tutorial" style books that try and teach you to be a master coder in 30 minutes, etc. These always fall short in my opinion. Hope that helps.
