A book called "vegan in 30 days" by Sarah Taylor is one of the books I'm using to help me get moving.  It's a softer approach to a surmountable task.  Even has sort of homework assignments to do each day to help you get into the intricacies I may not have thought were included in this transformation.  

Also purchased "Vegan's Daily Companion" by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau; this has been enjoyable so far as well, actually harder not to read ahead of my self and try to delve completely into each day and get the most out of it, and not just read on like one long story.  

My life story after I have hopefully achieved Vegan status will be long enough!  I am also putting together a swashbuckling collection for the supermarket from several resources to make up the right list that fits me and my children.  From Gluten free kids to lactose free to preservative free to the "Fruitatarian", don't forget my ambitions; there's a lot to take into account.
