How do I get the 4th star (Find the 8 Red Coins)?
1 of 9: You have to find all 8 red coins on this level. Keep reading for a list of where they are:
2 of 9: 1) On the top of the post where Chain Chomp is barking.
3 of 9: 2&3) After the bridge near the four wooden stakes.
4 of 9: 4) Underneath the stone bridge to the gated mountain entrance.
5 of 9: 5) At the gate entrance to the mountain, walk up the hill (or walk up part of the path to the top of the mountain and then jump down the hill).
6 of 9: 6) In a tree on top of the floating island.
7 of 9: 7) On top of one of the big rocks just below the floating island.
8 of 9: 8) Just above the two checkerboard platforms. Jump on one and then jump to the coin.
