As far as beginning Haskell books go, I think this is probably the best one out there. In the past I enjoyed reading the classic "Learn you A Haskell For Great Good" as my first foray into Haskell, but was disappointed in the lack of exercises.

Having recently started my professional journey into Haskell-land, this book also does a pretty good job of filling in the cracks by covering some topics considered to be intermediate-level such as Monad Transformers.
