Marlene, First of all, I love all your movies, especially "Judgement at Nuremberg". You're the best!
Now for your question...Go out to Amazon.com and check out "Oracle in a Nutshell" by Rick Greenwald. You can buy either a used copy ($27.98) or new ($34.97). It's 900+ pages (and like one fellow says, "I'd like to see the squirrel that eats that nutshell"
, but as you'll see from all the reviews, it is a great book for beginners and for those needing a good Oracle reference.

What, exactly, are you looking to do with Oracle? Are you looking to learn how to be a DBA? How to develop PL/SQL applications?
What sort of a background do you have-- Are you coming from another relational database? Are you familiar with other languages? Did you take some database theory classes in college?
