Fiction-Ler's

I was bragging about you all to a co-worker of mine and he was wondering if you could help him out in figuring out the name of a book he read a long time ago.

Here's what he remembers about the book:

He read it in 1970 or 1971. It's about group of kids on a field trip and they all are carrying bag lunches. They go through a cave and find a lost world with dinosaurs on the other side. There is a cave-in, and they are trapped. They find a prehistoric bird (archaeopteryx) and when they find another cave to exit through, they take the bird with them as proof of their adventure. There is another cave-in and the bird is lost.

We found a reference to a book called Adventure in Forgotten Valley by Glyn Frewer, and he's going to ILL it to see if it is the correct one, but we are not sure.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Erin
