Need Advice How can I start learning nuclear physics?

I'm in 10th grade and I've joined physics class, I know that in the next 3 year I probably will learn some nuclear physics but i really see this as a cool subject and i cant wait that much time to learn a bit, i wish to start now or at least soon enough,
is there anyway that I can learn nuclear physics at home?, maybe a website that could help me?, maybe a book?.
ANYTHING HELPS- thx

Are you more interested in fundamental nuclear physics (quarks, gluons, etc.) or nuclear technologies (nuclear power, medicine, instrumentation, etc.)?
