If I were you, I would do the 11g exams. The core exams are not harder than the 10g exams, but the upgrade exam from 10g to 11g is significantly harder: it tests new features, which are usually not included in the core exams.
As for books, I recommend the Oracle press series:

http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Database-Administration-Guide-1Z0-052/dp/0071591028
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Database-Fundamentals-Exam-Guide/dp/0071597867
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Database-All--Guide-CD-ROM/dp/0071629181

but if you check the authors, you will see why. Sybex also has a series, but I can't comment on them because I haven't read them. Go to Amazon, and read the reviews.
