Hi everyone

I have this code that I am using from a book, it seems that it does not run correctly, I am new to tkinter and trying to understand how its lay out is supposed to work, is this code up-to-date with using pycharm?
I have tried pycharm and IDLE, but it does not display all the widgets as talked about in the book, is there other modules/functions that should be arranged into this or have I done too many typos?

            from tkinter import *

            class Application(Frame):
                def __init__(selfself, master):
                    super(Application, self).__init__(master)
                    self.grid()
                    self.create_widgets()

                def create_widgets(self):
                    Label(self, text="enter information for story").grid(row=0, column=0, columnspan=2, sticky=W)
                    Label(self, text="person:").grid(row=1, column=0, sticky=W)
                    self.person_ent=Entry(self)
                    self.person_ent.grid(row=1, column=1, sticky=W)
                    Label(self, text="Plural Noun:").grid(row=2, column=0, sticky=W)
                    self.noun_ent = Entry(self)
                    self.noun_ent.grid(row=2, column=1, sticky=W)
                    Label(self, text="verb:").grid(row=3, column=0, sticky=W)
