Hi there,

I wonder if your id attribute is correctly placed in the HTML. Placing the id for logo inside the header opening tag seems to make more sense to me. BUT I'm making a bit of a guess myself without a link to the actual site. :-)

Good luck!

<header id="logo"> 
<a href="index.html"> 
<h1>Godzilla Monsters</h1> </a>
  <nav>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
      <li><a href="japan.html">Japan</a></li>
      <li><a href="america.html">America</a></li>
    </ul>
  </nav>
</header>

I'm not sure if you lost formatting when you posted your code, but you need #s in front of 'wrapper' and 'logo'. Also place a semicolon after your padding in your CSS.
