Then any standard C book should be a good start.
When you know C, you can then read the compiler manual. It will tell what extensions there is for the C51 architecture, and will show how to declare variables of different types and in different regions.
Then you should be ok reading all the example code that is available.
Obviously, when you get to the compiler manual and the adaptations for the C51 architecture, you have to compliment your reading with the relevant documentation about the C51 processors in general, and the specific data sheet/user manual for your specific chip. Search for the "bible" on this forum and you should find a huge number of links to the relevant documentation about the C51 core.
