|effect=Collecting them adds time to the count-down timer if [[Baby Mario]] is let go (touched an enemy).

'''Stars''', or '''Star Men'''<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #30, page 15.</ref>, are a common collectible in the ''[[Yoshi's Island (series)|Yoshi's Island]]'' games, found in certain defeated enemies and some [[Winged Cloud]]s or by dropping an enemy or [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] inside a [[Tulip]]. Winged Clouds can hold five Stars, while Tulips spout out eight Stars. However, if Yoshi has reached the maximum amount of Stars, these Stars will be replaced with [[coin]]s. There are also packs of Stars that come in [[10-Point Star|10]] or [[20-Point Star|20]]. Two of them also appear if a Yoshi Egg hits an enemy while it is red. These stars are used when [[Baby Mario]] falls off a Yoshi's back. The Stars create a bubble around Baby Mario, protecting him from [[Toady|Toadies]] until it is depleted. Every Star collected adds one more second to the [[Countdown Timer]], maxing at 30. [[Checkpoint Ring]]s give Yoshi ten more seconds as he passes through them. Should the player recover Baby Mario with less than 10 stars remaining, the counter will gradually refill to 10. In ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', Stars are replaced with [[Heart (item)|Hearts]].

In the ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y.]]'' microgame [[Yoshi (microgame)|Yoshi]], the [[Shy Guy]]s turn into Stars when Yoshi performs the ground pound.
