Like so often, the simple solution involves the Base component.
File>New>Database...
[X] Connect to existing db
Type: <Spreadsheet>
Specify your spreadsheet document and if it requires a password
[X] Register db
Save the so called "database document". So far it is a mere configuration
file. Your editable data remain in the spreadsheet file. The "database
tables" reflect the used data ranges of the sheets or the defined database
ranges (Calc:Data>Define...). You can hide some of the pseudo-tables if they
do not contain adequate data structures.

In any Writer document (or even Calc) you can hit F4 and drag the
spreadsheet table from the left pane of the data source window into your
document. 
The import dialog provides some formatting options for the resulting table
and which columns should be included. 
Simple queries added to the database configuration let you recombine any
collection of rows and columns in any order of rows and columns. Queries are
virtual tables and can be used just like the original sheet tables (used
ranges of sheets and data ranges).
