I am looking for a book which I think is called 'Sand'. It is about a group of young boys who discover bones in the sand and they spend their school holidays unearthing it, believing it to be a dinosaur.

Tony, I moved your thread up to Unsolved for you.

This is Sand, by William Mayne.

Tony, can you confirm that is your book?

[Tony]

Good grief - I had forgotten all about this. Yes, it is Sand, and I found it and bought it thanks.

Terrific.
