These beginner books kind of bother me. Children learn best when the material reflects their own life experience. Unless the child lives on a farm, these words aren't useful. Learning about things beyond direct experience comes with development; there's no point trying to rush it.

Phonetics, my friend. You're forgetting about phonetics. Looking at different letters and how they sound is good, no matter what the subject matter is. Animals can also be a very engaging subject to many children, which will engage them in their studies a lot more easily.

Of course if the children are interested, it's certainly okay. I would suggest creating tailored picture books as an alternative. Take photos of actual objects from the child's life and caption each picture.

I had a version of that book when I was little, and my mom called it a tractor. I told her that that word was too small. I was 4 years old. She looked at me like the troll shit I am.

I don't think of farms when I hear about combine harvesters... I think about Half Life.
