I would recommend "Introductory Ada - Packages for Programming" by 
Putnam P. Texel.  The book is an incomplete coverage of Ada, but it
does an excellent job of getting a novice in a proper Ada mind-set.
A second book by Texel covering the remainder of Ada has not yet 
been published.

I would recommend "Ada as a second language" by Norman H. Cohen as a 
reference text or a second book in addition to Texel's book.  Lots of
great examples in this text.
