What am i missing here? The errors arn't helping at all.

I can't seem to get this code to meet the challenge, the errors just say "bummer" which is the least helpful :)

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