Monsters & Creatures does exactly that. It gives info about creatures without any details or stats. It's made for children, but let's be honest, all DnD players are children in the body of a grownup.
People are giving you bad recommendations.
This is what you want:
https://www.amazon.com/Monsters-Creatures-Adventurers-Dungeons-Dragons/dp/1984856405
Entirely lore-focused book, pitched at kids and young readers, officially licensed. Literally everything you could want.
There are a couple other books in this series and more on the way.

I haven't read them, but they sound like the sort of thing.
D&D really boils down to roll a d20 and add or subtract a modifier, they should be able to understand it fairly easily. And just run a straight forward dungeon crawl adventure like Sunless Citadel from the Tales From the Yawning Portal book.
D&D also just put out young adventurers books. And a series of choose your own adventure books.
Hero Kids is also a good option and has tons of free pdf stuff available. And then there is also Mouse Guard which uses a version of the Burning Wheel system. Mouse Guard has several cool graphic novels good for kids those ages.
Finally, the Fantasy Flight Star Wars games would be very good for kids. Kids know Star Wars so they don't have to learn the setting and can dive right in. The Edge of the Empire starter set has everything you need and a really good intro adventure.
I’m pregnant and have both of these saved and will be ordering ABC’s as soon as it’s available again. My husband is excited haha we also have a player’s handbook and monster manual that were specifically written for kids... let me find a link real quick because they’re super cool and have Pokémon style size references with descriptions like “about the size of a beachball” or other random relatable objects.
Edit: Monsters and Creatures
Warriors and Weapons
There are apparently more of them? The author was at GenCon and these are the two we got
