First, "looking a book" is wrong. You need to add "at". However, "look at a
book" means something different from "read a book". If you read a book, it
means you are looking at the words in the book and you understand what they
mean. If you look at a book, you might just see the picture on its cover,
how big it is, and what color it is.

Also, in modern English, we usually use "who" with people and "that" or
"which" with things.

猜想該是reading誤寫？

改寫是OK的，但味道不盡然一模一樣。

1. Who is the man that is reading a book over there?
=> Who is the man?
+
The man is reading a book over there.

2. Who is the man over there that is reading a book?
=> Who is the man over there?
+
The man is reading a book.
