The best book I know of for an absolute newbie-is "Turn left at Orion" by Consolmagno and Davies. It may be available at your library-it is at mine. Check it out.
its written for the northern hemisphere observer but it truly is an excellent beginners book
another book often recommended to beginners is Terence Dickinson's "Nightwatch" -again written for the Northern hemisphere observer but still usable by us in the South
