I wouldn't say that there are any specific books to improve people's English. I would just say to read any book, though I do recommend Hemingway for his somewhat stark and terse prose.

"Man, being reasonable, must get drunk; the best of life is but intoxication" - Lord Byron
"Where men are forbidden to honour a king they honour millionaires, athletes, or film-stars instead: even famous prostitutes or gangsters. For spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison." - C. S. Lewis
Just don't get into Dickens too early. He is an excellent writer, no doubt, and one whose books would likely enriches one's language skill; but his prose lingers and deviates in such a way that an inexperienced English reader will have trouble following it.
but a good way to learn though.try reading something you would like.
