I started a small book on OCaml myself some time ago, when I was teaching me the language, focused on how to switch from C to OCaml (how to use modules, how to live with a GC, how the runtime works internally, and how to mix OCaml and C). I could translate it from French ascii to English tex and add the required diagrams, and contribute it if you are interested?
