I would suggest you go to a library. My local university has 117 books on Nanking, and they're likely all a lot more trustworthy than Wikipedia: University of Texas Libraries /All Locations

PS the Wikipedia article on the Rape of Nanking has a "further reading" section that even links to some online PDF files of good stuff: Nanking Massacre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Out of curiosity, what grade are you doing this for?

And I'm pretty sure there are books of nothing but compilations of Nanking stories told by eyewitnesses. But I'd be willing to bet there are a ton more in Japanese and a superton more in Chinese.
I've bought "The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II"
and read every article I could find in the library
Grades work different in the Netherlands so I really don't know...
Wikipedia is allowed and I'm translating what I find on there...
