It's not clear if you want object oriented DESIGN or PROGRAMMING. But
designwise. I found "Object-Oriented Modeling and Design" (James Rumbaugh and
others, Prentice Hall, 1991) a good high-level overview
programmingwise, you couldn't do much better than having a go at learning
Eiffel (www.Eiffel.com, I think. And there used to be a free compiler). The
book I used was "Eiffel. An Introduction" (Robert Switzer, Prentice Hall,
1993).
Rebol isn't particularly object-oriented. In many ways it doesn't have to be,
so it probably isn't the best language for first trying out OO stuff.
