Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar is a 2012 self-help book by American author and podcaster Cheryl Strayed. Tiny Beautiful Things is a collection of essays compiled from Strayed's "Dear Sugar" advice column, which she wrote anonymously, on The Rumpus, an online literary magazine.[1][2] The columns focus as much on her literary memoir as they do on advice and self-help.[3]

The book was published on July 10, 2012, by Vintage Books, a division of Random House Publishing, and debuted at No. 5 on the New York Times Best Seller list in the advice and self-help category.[4]
