If I understand your question right, you are reading "Learning Perl", but find the chapter about regular expressions too difficult, so that you can't understand it, and you are now looking for an easier introduction. Correct?
I think a VERY easy intro can be found here: http://www.somacon.com/p127.php. After you understood this, go back to your book and read the chapter again.
This is another introduction: http://www.enginsite.com/Library-Perl-Regular-Expressions-Tutorial.htm. Though this is on about the same level than the chapter in Learning Perl, maybe it helps you to have the same subject covered in a different way.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
