what is the best book that you know that provides explanations of electromagnetism and its phenomena without too much hard maths please?

I'm not sure that Feynman is "without too much math."

Try Nobel prize winner Max Born's "Einstein's Theory of Relativity", which presents a largely descriptive and rather non-mathematical description of mechanics, optics and E&M using nothing more than high-school algebra. There are many diagrams, and he manages to explain Maxwell's equations in an intuitive way. You'll also get descriptive tutorials on special (and a little bit of general) relativity.
