"The Girl's Own Paper was first published, weekly, 'Price One Penny,' on 3 January 1880. Its aim as a magazine was to be a 'Counsellor, Playmate, Guardian, Instructor, Companion, and Friend' to the girls, helping 'to train them in moral and domestic virtues,' in preparation for 'the responsibilities of womanhood and for a heavenly home.' Within a few months the Editor claimed to be receiving almost a thousand letters a week, of which on average about seventy were answered in the Victorian equivalent of the problem page.
From the replies published during the first three years of the magazine's life Roy Hindle has selected nearly five hundred, but with much less lofty aims. It is hoped that the answers reprinted in this book will, in addition to showing that much has changed in the course of a century, prove a source of interest, amusement and occasional amazement to today's readers."
