Please see my attached code.
//Select the naviagation
var navigation = document.getElementById("navigation");
//Select all listItems from the navigation
var listItems = navigation.children;
//When a navigation link is pressed
var linkListener = function() {
console.log("Listener is clicked!");
}
var bindEventsToLinks = function(listItem) {
//Select the anchor
var anchor = listItem.querySelector("listItem.anchor");
//Bind the linkListener to the anchor element (a)
anchor.onclick = linkListener;
}
for(var i = 0; i < listItems.length ; i++) {
bindEventsToLinks(listItems[i]);
}

To select the anchor element in your querySelector(), you need only pass this string: "a"
