Visualforce workbook help

Hi guys,

​I'm new to using visualforce as a way to customize Salesforce so I’ve started to use the visualforce workbook to help learn the limits, however, I seem to be getting stuck in tutorial #5 (using standard user interface components).
 
Below is what I’ve written (copied from pg18 in the workbook) but I get the error message - Unknown property 'account.contacts' referenced in Tutorial5
 
<apex:page>
<apex:pageBlock title="My Accounts Contacts">
<apex:pageBlockTable value="{!account.contacts}"var="item">
</apex:pageBlockTable>
</apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>
 
Has anyone else received the above error message or know why the above it incorrect?
 
Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Kind regards,
Fiona
