What is a good C++ book for beginners with small projects in it?

I need to get a C++ book that is for beginners. The book that was recommended is quiet expensive so the professor said we could use any C++ book etc. Is there a good C++ book that you would recommended that has mini projects to teach yourself C++ etc?

Thanks a lot

    the best way to learn C++ is to go on youtube and watch tutorials and do what they do to learn basics then start to look into more complex stuff until you finally got everything down. Why use a book? You can use youtube free I've learned php, css, c++, html all from youtube.
