The sun IS a star, and it is a moderately small one. It is a middle-temperature, stable yellow star which is actually quite small and dim when compared with many other stars. On the H-R diagram, which classifies stars according to temperature and spectral type (color), our sun is a type G2 star.
In apparent size, as seen from Earth, the sun of course appears so much larger because it is so close. You have to realize that the stars we see at night are extremely distant, so they all appear as pinpoints of light even in strong telescopes. However, the sun is a star, it is not a unique astronomical entity, and it is a dim, yellow dwarf star that is much cooler and much smaller than most of the stars we see at night. Our sun would be too small and dim to be seen with the naked eye from a planet orbiting a star a few hundred light years away from us.
