Where can I learn about the DOM?

Does anyone know of a good place to learn about the DOM (using vanilla js, not jQuery)?

W3Schools can't possibly be best place to do this.. http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_htmldom.asp

MDN has a brief introduction which is great but too short https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document_Object_Model/Introduction and a full reference which is.. not short. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document_Object_Model

Something right in between those 2 would be fantastic.

Going through the developer tools course can help gain a better understanding of how the DOM works.
