help! Bummer! Type the value for the 'morePuppies' string exactly as specified in the instructions.

why it says that?

CodeChallenge.java
Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
 Resources resources=getResources();
String morePuppies=resources.getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText(morePuppies);
strings.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
  <string name="morePuppies">"See More Puppies"</string>
</resources>

Hi there,

You are defining a string within the angle brackets. You don't need to include the inverted commas too:

<string name="morePuppies">See More Puppies</string>

That should do it!
