All Yesterdays is exactly this. The first half reimagines dinos from how we traditionally view them (leaning into things like feathers and a t-rex sleeping) and the second half reinterprets contemporary fauna based on their skeletons to demonstrate how wrong we might be about dinos. It's a great coffee table book.
