== Biography ==
Van Draanen was born in Chicago, Illinois. One of her very early influences was ''Dandelion Wine'' by Ray Bradbury. According to the author, the book was "about the magic of growing up and () reminded me of all the wonderful mischief my brothers and I got into when we were young." Bradbury's work inspired Van Draanen to write ''How I Survived Being a Girl'', which was published by HarperCollins in 1997.〔Newman, Patricia (May 2002). ("Who Wrote That?

Retrieved 2011-05-11.〕 Other early influences include Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, and ''Encyclopedia Brown''. In college, the Van Draanen family business was burned down, leading to financial hardship. Wendelin turned to writing to alleviate stress and she published her first book in 1997, titled ''How I Survived Being a Girl''.〔
Van Draanen is the daughter of two chemists who immigrated from the Netherlands. Before she became a full-time writer she was a high school math teacher and computer science teacher.〔
Van Draanen lives in San Luis Obispo, California with her husband Mark Parsons and two sons, Colton and Connor.〔
