Hi Tatenda,

There are a few tiny issues:

  1. The name attribute declared in the instance should be labeled title
  2. The values for title and author were not the expected values

Here is the code below that should work

struct Book {
    let title: String
    let author: String
    let price: Double
}

let myBook = Book(title: "Animal Farm", author: "George Orwell", price: 6.00)

Hope this helps ?
