TAR: Zoombinis and Broderbund

[kathy farrell <kfar@TELUSPLANET.NET>]

Hi all,

In my previous job as a teacher-librarian I had multiple copies of the CD
The Logical Journey of the Zoombinis.  Now I am consulting in a different
region of the province and would absolutely love to have the CD to show my
librarians.  Budgets are very tight here, but I know they would love to buy
the CD if they could only see it in action.

I called Broderbund today and they said they never give out samples or demos
of it.  Aside from buying the thing from my own pocket - which is not going
to happen - do any of you have suggestions?  I know these libraries would
buy it - it's just so good.  However, they are under restraints that do not
"encourage" them to make purchases sight unseen - even under the
recommendation of the consultant.  The fact that it can be returned if the
purchaser is not happy just doesn't fly up here in the more remote areas.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
