I found OO difficult to start off with and was a alien concept coming from old school basic as my primary language.
The way I managed to conquer the concept was to relate the ideas to something I knew about and then take the abstract ideas and apply them to something real world that I understood well. Off topic and probably ahead of where you are at the moment development wise but looking at "design patterns by the gang of four" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_Patterns
This is a great book but hardcore about software engineering. There are others that explain these concepts "Head firsts" book is supposed to be excellent for all levels of developers as well.
