It wants you to import the Monster class from the monster.py file. This means your import statement should be "from monster import Monster". You don't need to include the .py extension on the monster (lowercase) file. Then you use the uppercase Monster class as the parent that Dragon will inherit from. Other than that everything looks good. Sorry I'm on my phone so I'll submit this and then I can explain it better f you need more clarification.
