Remove the <em> tags from the second paragraph. That isn't part of the challenge.

They certainly shouldn't surround "Mike T. Frog" in this challenge, and definitely should open and close in order, even if they were supposed to be there.

You have used the em tag inside the strong tag on the second paragraph which is incorrect. Strong importance would mean use the strong tag, em would mean add emphasis.
