* BelatedChildDiscipline: This is what triggers Jeremy's CharacterDevelopment. Jeremy would demand every toy he saw and threw a fit when he didn't get it. Ultimately, his parents finally put their foot down and refuse, leading to Jeremy trying to ask Santa for ''every toy made'' and the confused elves discovering the off-the-path town of Jeremy Creek.

The main character (and titular character of the original poem) is a SpoiledBrat by the name of Jeremy Creek, who always wants every toy he sees and is prone to throwing tantrums if he doesn't get it. Eventually, his parents get sick of it and tell him they're not buying him any more toys. Jeremy then writes a mile-length letter to SantaClaus, in which he lists every toy he can think of, and mails it in the middle of June. When Christmas Eve arrives, he goes up on his family's roof to watch for Santa, but to his dismay, the big guy passes him by without delivering anything.
What Jeremy doesn't realize, though, is that when Santa received his letter, he assumed that, since no kid could possibly want so much stuff, that Jeremy Creek was in fact the name of a place. And it ''was'' - to be more exact, it was the name of a swamp town that Santa had never before visited (hence the title). Thus, he had in fact brought the toys Jeremy wanted to the kids who live in the swamp town. When Jeremy finds out about this through a TV report on Christmas Day, he is at first outraged by this. But upon hearing how much the kids of the swamp town are willing to thank whoever wrote to Santa about them, it [[DefrostingIceQueen makes him feel better than any gift ever could]]. Following this, the now-nicer Jeremy shares his toys with the rest of the kids in his neighborhood and even joins Santa on his annual gift-giving journey every year ([[GrowingUpSucks until he eventually outgrows his seat in the sleigh]]).
