Scheme exercises of increasing complexity? (alien.top)

I'd like to learn Scheme by doing programming tasks, because reading exposition makes my ADD glazeth over between the 100 self-evident things and the 1 new thing hiding among them.

I think it would be better if I had problems thrown at me, and in the process of solving them I would wonder how to accomplish this or that, and slowly discover Scheme in the process.

Googling doesn't really give me what I had in mind, maybe I'm not searching for the rights terms, but anyway I thought it wouldn't hurt asking too. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Have you read The Little Schemer. It's an unorthodox book that teaches you scheme from the bottom up by answering questions one at a time to solve problems.

The Little Schemer is absolutely the way to go.
