You just have to take a look to the CPC 6128 User Manual: http://www.cpcwiki.eu/index.php/User_Manual

no html?

You don't get that 1980s, reading the manual type vibe with HTML

There is a version with hypertext links on the same page.
Now, if it is not a book that you want, have you tried to search about "locomotive basic" on the wiki?

In terms of a tutorial, I'm unsure if anyone has done one online, probably because of growing interest in Cross-Development Languages, I think Sean McManus' The BASIC Idea maybe the closest thing

Amstrad did make a BASIC tutorial guide and Parts One & Two are available on CPC-POWER with Manuals in PDF format.

Personally I typed in a number of BASIC examples from a Tutorial Amstrad Computer User had in 1991, which I thought was quite good despite being badly presented with examples presented in a non-fixed typeface, that series is also on CPC-Power as Parts 1 to 7 with JPG scans of that Tutorial series!

Apart from that a number of my threads on here may help, in Study of 464 Only Game Helicopter/Destination Saturn from ACU, I dismantle each level from that game into individual games.
In My BASIC Simple Platform Game w/ Alternative Sprite Drivers, I took a simple Platform game I coded and enhanced with Sprite Drivers which could be used from BASIC.

Yes, these are excellent.
I'm a professional developer today because of those books.

Interestingly, shortly after reading your post I found them on eBay by chance:
