Python Basics: function just_right? Cant get to pass

Can someone direct me in the right direction for this question?

I have seemed to miss something here.

strlen.py 
def just_right(string):
    if len(string) < 5:
        print("Your string is too short")
    elif len(string) > 5:
        print("Your string is too long")
    else:
        return True

You are so so close my good sir. The function needs to be returned not printed is all. Change the prints to returns and your code will be "just right".
