New to Java

I'm working through book examples about JavaBeans and this is my first attempt. My code is:

package com.wrox.cars;
 
import java.io.Serializable;
 
public class CarBean implements Serializable {
	
	public CarBean () {
	}
	
	private String make = "Ford";
	
	public String getMake() {
		return make;
	}
	
	public void setMake(String make) {
		this.make = make;
	}
}

I'm unable to compile my code because of the error:

/begjsp-ch04/CarBean.java:1: 'class' or 'interface' expected
package com.wrox.cars;
^
/begjsp-ch04/CarBean.java:3: 'class' or 'interface' expected
import java.io.Serializable;
^
2 errors

I copied this code directly from the book. Does the package mean that it won't compile anywhere but that location? I need some guidance, thanks.
