Usually books on teaching VB come with a CD that you install the Working Model from. Check the back of the book and the table of contents on how to install it.

Microsoft Press (http://search.microsoft.com/us/products/mspress/) publish two tutorials for VB. Both include the "learning" version of VB which generally doesn't include a distribution licence for any programs you create. There is usually some reduction in the contents of these packages from the full version.
I'm not sure, but "working model" versions of vb most likely won't be able to produce executables, i.e. you cant run the programs independently.
That said, welcome to the programming world. Best of luck
