When I was that age I liked the various nonfiction Wicca books by Silver RavenWolf. She also has a novel (maybe a series now?) about teenage wiccans. This was a good 20 years ago and I abandoned that interest as an older teenager so I have no idea if the author is still popular but I will say her stuff is definitely age-appropriate and accessible for preteen/young adult readers.

maybe try “the wiccan handbook for kids”? my cousin was super into this phase and that one was perfect for her age – has some simple craft stuff too that’s not too heavy on the religion part.

I’ve got THE rec for you – Wise Child and Juniper by Monica Furlong! Absolutely formative books for me as a child. The characters don’t practice “wicca” as such, but the books are definitely about pagan values – connection with nature, the mindfulness of chores, the grounding aspect of rituals etc

The Wheel of the Year by Fiona Cook. Not strictly Wiccan, but very pagan/witchy.
