It can be confusing since it asked for a button. but just remember that checkboxes and radio buttons are added with the input tag. input can be more then a few things when you change its type.

it should be like this:
<input type ="radio" id="small" value="small" name="shirt_size">

instead of this: <button type="radio" id="small" value="small" name="shirt_size"></button>
