Callback Function Challenge

I'm having a hard time passing this challenge. I think I'm missing something simple but can't figure it out.

app.js 
() => {
  console.log("Hello World!");
}

functionRunner () =>
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <title></title>
        <link rel='stylesheet' href='styles.css'>
    </head>
    <body>
        <section>
            <p>Open your browser's console to see the results</p>
        </section>
        <script src='runner.js'></script>
        <script src='app.js'></script>
    </body>
</html>
runner.js 
function functionRunner(callback) { 
  callback();
}

First you just need to delete the log name form the function declaration, then you copy the new anonymous function in the functionRunner() call as a paramether like this :

functionRunner(function() {
  console.log("Hello World!");
});
