Help with permanent redirect from .php -> .html

I know this should be simple and that I must be missing something basic.
I want to permanently redirect from
http://www.csectionrecovery.com/folder.php?id=1
to:
http://www.csectionrecovery.com/books.html

I tried this line in my .htaccess file:
redirect 301 /folder.php?id=1 http://www.csectionrecovery.com/books.html

but it just seems to ignore it. Other simple tests like this one work fine:
redirect 301 /123 http://www.csectionrecovery.com/books.html

Currently google has an assortment of php URLs indexed and cached - and I want to make sure it eventually crawls and caches my new .html versions of these pages so I can get rid of the dynamic .php version.

Any tips?
Thanks!

Try the following:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/books.html folder.php?id=1 [r=301,nc]

Dont forget to change yoursite.com in the code to your real url.
