I really wanted to like SICP but Lisp throws me off. I love Haskell and Standard ML however! Did others have a similar experience? Might be interesting to read a book similar in spirit to SICP but using a different language as a vehicle (No, I don't want to do SICP in JavaScript).

"Concepts, Techniques, and Models of Computer Programming" by Peter Van Roy and Seif Haridi is my favourite.
