I second the comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48327571) recommending How to Design Programs (HTDP) and Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (SICP). The former has an edX course (https://www.edx.org/learn/coding/university-of-british-colum... and https://www.edx.org/learn/coding/university-of-british-colum...) and the latter has online lectures (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-J_xL4IGhJA&list=PLE18841CAB...)
