Re: FAA Books
FAR Part 61, Subpart J covers Sport Pilot. But 61.315 contains privileges and limitations, which will appear on the knowledge test and the oral. As far as actual flying goes, The Airplane Flying Handbook FAA-H-8083-3A is a good place to start. There are also many very good references and practice test questions available on the internet, which I found easier to understand.
Re: FAA Books
In direct response to your question, everything in the AIM is applicable to all pilots, regardless of level of certificate. But it's all informational, not regulatory. Consider the AIM just a compendium of best practices, which should be reviewed but not memorized. Your practical test will be open book, so bring your AIM with you to refer to during the oral. (I have my students put tabs in the AIM at places they're likely to want to reference.)
The opinions posted are those of one CFI, and do not necessarily represent the FAA or its lawyers.

Re: FAA Books
If you buy an ASA FAR/AIM you will find a list in the front of what to read for each rating.
