Don't understand what I'm doing wrong in last challenge

I'm supposed to assign the font-size of the list with class 'more' the value of the root font size using rem. I believe this should be 1rem, but it's telling me to check my length unit. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong??

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Relative Length Units</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="cc1-main-styles.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
</head>
    <body>
    <div class="box">
        <h1>Let's use Font-Relative Length Units</h1>
        <p>
            Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod
            tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam,
            quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo
            consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse

            <a class="more" href="#">Read more...</a>
        </p>
    </div>
    </body>
</html>
style.css 
/* Write your CSS code below */

h1 {
  font-size: 2.5em;
}

p {
  font-size: 1.5em;
}

.more li {
  font-size: 1rem;
}

Adrienne, remove the li selector and you should be good.
