Mwah, I think the built-in help is sufficient, esp. when you have a background in B3d/2d already. Only tricky part is userlibs I think, and types are explained a bit too abstract, rather than low-level (imho).

To get the hang out of B+, try something obvious 'n simple, like a map-editor.

B+'s main issue is that there are only a few gadgets available (things like an image-button are missing!). It is however possible to make your own gadgets (see my tut in the tut-section), but many would argue that such gadgets should be present in B+ natively.
