Hi Chris

First hint, newlines are free to use! Consider some next time!

Second, Django is an evolving framework. It helps to know what version
you are using.

Finally, launch the django shell ("python mange.py shell" instead of
"python manage.py runserver").
Try to import your module - "import mysite.books" - does it work?
If it doesn't, does this work? - "import books"

Cheers

Tom
