Why do stars and the sun appear different?
Stars appear different from the sun because the sun is closer to the earth and the other stars are further away from the earth so that's why the appear differently when you look at them in the sky!!!!!
How does the tilt of the axis cause us to see different constellations in different seasons?
No, but the fact that the Earth orbits the Sun does do that. Because of the way sunlight ins scattered through our atmosphere (and because the Sun is incredibly bright), we cannot see stars that appear near the Sun in the sky; the Sun has to go below the horizon for any stars to be visible. Stars that are near the Sun in the sky are not visible. So as the Earth goes around the Sun, a different set of stars appear to be "behind" the Sun, near it in the sky, each season.
When compared to other stars the sun is very not unusual what make the sun more important than any other star?

It isn't. The sun appears bigger and brighter than other stars only because is is much closer to us.
Why does the sun appear bigger than the stars?
Because we are closer to the sun than to the stars. The sun is bigger than SOME stars. Stars can be all different sizes. Some stars are in fact smaller than our sun but not as small as they appear to be. On the other hand, some stars are hundreds even thousands times larger than the sun we see. They only look small because they are so far away.
Why is the sun so much larger than the rest of the stars in your night sky?
Well first it is because that stars and the sun are different things. Stars are gasses combined and the sun is a big ball of fire. That is the way God made it.
Do you always see the same stars when you look out at night?
Because stars only die every seven billion years
