I need a text for a newbie.

While the other books suggested are excellent, I think that they would be hard going if you find Barr & Wells difficult.

The simplest introduction to the ideas of category theory that I know is
"Conceptual Mathematics" by F W Lawvere & S H Schanuel.

There are a great many online resources including many good books on category theory. But Barr & Wells is one of the best for application to Computing.
