The camel book may be long but most of it is reference. If you can make it through the subroutines chapter, you've covered less than a quarter of the book but that should get you to the point where you can write some very useful programs. Write some programs for a while to get used to perl. Then go back to the book and start working on the next few chapters, one at a time. By the time you hit page 400, you've covered all of perl. The rest of the book can be viewed as best practices, style guides and reference.
