I think this is exactly what you're looking for: The Little Book of 
Ruby.

http://www.sapphiresteel.com/The-Little-Book-Of-Ruby

It's free and comes with code examples.  You can read along and open the 
rb files to see how it works, as you go along.  It's pretty cool.  I 
haven't coded anything for 5 or 6 years since my last few programing 
classes.  It helped me a lot.  Even with the examples, there's a lot for 
a newb to chew off, so it will still be a challenge.
