Here are some "introductory yet comprehensive" books about programming
with Scheme that will help you get proficient with Guile and other
Scheme implementations:

Felleisen et al's How to Design Programs: https://htdp.org/

Havrey and Wright's Simply Scheme

Springer and Friedman's Scheme and the Art of Programming

Out of these I recommend Havrey and Wright's Simply Scheme the most.
It has the best treatment of input/output and text processing, a
couple of large realistic projects (a spreadsheet and a database),
and a chapter on Common Lisp.
