I came across an 'A' check book made by a company in weston airport (leixlip, ireland) but although it was a good attempt at creating a full easy to read checklist including pictures...

It was a good idea, in that it had pictures labelled with the part to look at, but i was missing several items, and to the new trainee, they wouldn't be able to tell what a sprag clutch was for example, and to this day, i have yet to find one that actually doesn't have any negatives to it...

My advice would be to go to your local school, and get an instructor to go through it with you, at least then you'll have a proper insight into the CORRECT workings of the machine, rather than approaching it blindfolded!!

Get a 'lesson' on the pre-flight, then make your own, people understand things better when it comes from there own person, 1st hand!

As time consuming as it may be, it'll be worth it!
