I was thinking of this book:

C++ Primer Plus (6th Edition) by Stephen Prata

https://www.amazon.com/Primer-Plus-6th-Developers-Library/dp/0321776402

which seem more accessible to beginners.

And thank you all for book suggestions and the interesting discussions. At the same time let's not start a fight between Ada and C++. I agree that long time ago C++ was just a superset of C but over time C++ has diverged from C.
