I dont know of any good books on making games with basic, but definiteley check out www.neozones.com, www.qbasic.com, and www.qb45.com, all very high quality sites devoted to basic, mainly qbasic, which is by far the best dialect to use if you just want to make small, simple games easily.

I don't know if any of these are good, read the customer reviews.
And I assume you mean visual basic , right? As regular basic doesn't have the capability. MS has changed basic so much that VB is essentially wordy C++.
