From the screen shots above, I can see the stars on the jacket.xhtml file (obviously)...however, the eReader itself (capture below) can't display them. Could it be a font issue (???) within the eReader. Pretty befuddled.
My guess would be a font issue. Try some of the other fonts on the device and see if the stars are displayed.

Alternatively, it could be how the stars are put on the page. This could be something that the editor preview pane understands, but the Kobo renderer doesn't. For that, I'd need to see the code.
