The three friends - Danny, Irene and Joe - find a cave and with two adults along - one a geologist and one a science teacher, have a fun but semi-dangerous exploration of the cave. They find an amazing creature and come out with only minor injuries.

A great book for the younger set (maybe 7-12) interested in rocks and/or caves. The only thing that annoyed me (but young boys would probably enjoy) was the continuous lecturing about every little thing they found inside the cave. To me it was tedious and obvious but a boy might find it fascinating. This is part of a series - Danny and his friends have many adventures. It was written in 1967 and is still relevant today.
