Might also start with the OSPF Design Guide on the web:

Then move on to the great books mentioned.  I am partial to Halabi, but to 
be honest, I have not read the whole Moy book, and his name is on the 
RFC.... :)

If the sites are reasonably close together, you do not need that many 
areas, but it might not be that bad an idea either.  If the b/w is 
congested on the WAN, you'll probably wanna keep the areas.
