Plot
Share Bear and a Twinklet named Gleamer lead a mission in caring when they travel to Glitter City, where Princess Starglo trains Twinklets to become stars.

Reception
"Parents with a working knowledge of how the stars, sun, constellations, and universe work might have difficulty watching this DVD with their children, since it gives such a magical explanation for their existence. On the other hand, Share Bear's unwavering conviction in Princess Starglo should prove a worthwhile example for parents looking to discuss the importance of keeping faith even when no one around you feels the same," wrote Common Sense Media.
