From the Official Shining Stars Website:
"Next time you wish upon a star...let it be your very own shining star! RUSS® has partnered with the International Star Registry® in a revolutionary new Shining Stars™ program. The program includes a plush Shining Star® friend, crafted using only the finest of materials and identifiable by the star icon and embroidered Shining Stars® logo on the paw pad... and the chance to literally become a star by having your name recorded with a star in the sky.
"You can choose from a wide variety of Shining Stars® Friends to buy for yourself or to give to your own shining star. Once purchased, you can log on to the Shining Stars® website and using the secret code found inside the sealed hangtag, you can register and name your star with the International Star Registry®.
"The website will show an image and the coordinates of your star that can be printed on a certificate that verifies its exact location in the cosmos. But there's more...for children of all ages, the website is a virtual universe where they can send e-cards, play customized games designed for different age groups and find a galaxy of fun activities.
"Young or old, anyone who receives a Shining Stars® friend will have a cherished keepsake to treasure forever, as well as their own personally named star to shine brightly throughout eternity. So, reach for the Shining Stars® and get ready to embark on a magical virtual journey where everyone can...
"Wish... Share... Shine!"
