A+ Self-Study Recommendations

Hello fellow gurus. I was wondering if anybody could tell me what the best self-study books and/or software would be to become A+ certified. I have over 25 years experience in the IT industry and have seen just about everything that can happen to a computer and network. I am not certified b/c I am terrible at taking tests. My mind won’t function for some reason when I have to take a test but when it comes to getting the job done I can do it in my sleep. I need and want to become certified in everything that I can possibly become certified in. I don’t have time to take classes but I do have time to read the books. So if you can recommend the best, I would greatly appreicate it!!! Thanks!!!
