Prompts not working and no story appears

Not sure what is going on here. Here is my code. Let me know what I am doing wrong.

var animal = prompt("Name an animal");

var part = prompt("Enter a part for your animal");

var animal_color = prompt("What color is your animal do?");

var action = prompt("What does your animal do?");

alert("Thanks. Your story will appear shortly");

document.write( "There once was a little "+ animal ", whose " part " was " + animal_color + ". "

"One day the little " + animal_color + animal " decided to " + action + ". "

"Thus, the little " + animal_color + animal + " became a great " + action + "or." );

You forgot some '+' to concat the strings/variables.

document.write( "There once was a little "+ animal + ", whose " + part + " was " + animal_color + ". " +
"One day the little " + animal_color + " " + animal + " decided to " + action + ". " +
"Thus, the little " + animal_color + " " + animal + " became a great " + action + "or." );
