There are tons available, but here's a website (link below). They also have a link to software that formats the script for you. It's called Final Draft. You get a free trial! If you want to buy it, it's quite expensive but honestly it's nothing you can't do on your own once you get the hang of it.
By the way, "CUT TO:" goes on the far right and "V.O." goes in the middle with the dialogue & character, etc.
If you still want a book, here are some:
Screenwriting For Dummies
The Screenwriter's Bible
Save The Cat! The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need
Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting
How NOT To Write A Screenplay
101 Habits of Highly Successful Screenwriters
Crafty Screenwriting
I recommend getting some from the library to see which suits your needs :-)
Good luck!

well it depends if you want first person, third person or whatever kind of perspective but the thing is that you have to make this desceion because this can make your story goo or bad, and also check on google and write how to type a book
