Hiya,

In this challenge you are first creating a public class, which you've done, then adding a member variable. You have added a method.

If you just declare a public variable of type String inside the class, then you will have completed the challenge. 

public class PictureBook {

    public String mTitle;

}

That should do it!

Steve.
