I second the recommendation for SQLAlchemy. I've not used Elixir, but
that's a way to abstract SQLAlchemy further, if you want to work at an
even higher level of abstraction.
The documentation for SQLAlchemy is very good, in my experience. The
library allows one to work entirely with the object system (using it
as an ORM), or dynamically build SQL statements, or combine the two
methods.
