If you have an iPhone, you can buy many excellent SQL Server books through the AppStore. Do a search for SQL, and you'll find books by Kalen Delaney and the like.

I read some SQL books but they only mention about theory. I need a lot of exercises to practice and the guide. Thanks.

Many of those books have excellent examples, which you can run yourself on the Sample Databases which Microsoft provides.
