If it's just too learn SQL then would a LibreOffice database do, perhaps they removed it but you used to be able to use (or perhaps just import?) a spreadsheet as a DB and run SQL against it. Definitely did joins and order-bys using standard SQL syntax.

Libreoffice now use firebird under the hood I think.

Firebird has a more complete support for sql than sqlite has. It also has the advantage of being able to be used both in a manner analogous to sqlite or as a full blown server database.
