I cannot recommend my book "Ada Plus Data Structures" for learning Ada. It is targeted at CS2 (2nd course in computer science) students. It assumes that you already know the control structures and some of Ada's type model. It then teaches the basic data structures. Only a brief introduction to Ada's OO capabilities. Really a beginning level book best paired with my introductory book "Programming and Problem Solving with Ada".
Since I have damned one of my books, I will recommend another that includes an introduction to Ada for folks who have skills in other programming languages.
