You might have worded the question better, e.g. 'are there stars brighter than the moon?' Then the answer I would give is our own star, the sun, is far brighter in appearance than any other star visible, because it is the closest star to US.

There are stars 'out there' that have more luminosity than our sun, often larger or hotter, and our sun is no mini ha ha:

Much brighter. Although the moon is not a star, it looks bright because it is so close to us. It's only light from the sun shine on the moon.
