Question

Answer 1

Check the official website of SilverLight which is http://www.silverlight.net/.
It contains videos and tutorial that you can start with.

Answer 2

Google is your best friend. There are so manny resources available for Silverlight, so that is is impossible to list them all here. Some of my personal recommendations are

• wrox silverlight 4 book
• Channel 9 has allot of videos concerning silverlight
• browse msdn tutorials: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163404.aspx
• and last but not lease silverlight.net => http://www.silverlight.net/learn/videos/all/

And when you think you have a good understanding of the workings of silverlight / WPF you can switch to the MVVM pattern:
