Why is the sun hot and can burn you if you get to close

Hello There!

The sun is a star and our nearest star. The sun is closer than almost all stars and that is why it is so big. The sun is so hot and bright because it's a huge ball of fire. Even though the sun is around 92 million miles away, it is still extremely bright. It will burn you if you get close because your body can not sustain an average temperature its just way too hot.
