To be steamboatmen
In "The Boy's Ambition" by Mark Twain, the boys felt admiration and a sense of awe towards people who worked on a steamboat. They were inspired by the idea of being able to travel the world and explore new places, which fueled their ambition to become steamboat captains themselves one day.
In "The Boy's Ambition" from Mark Twain's "Life on the Mississippi," exaggeration is used when he wishes the apprentice was dead. The boy, who had always longed to be on a steamboat, prefers doing menial work on the steamboat instead of working with his wealthy father.

He was undecided when he was finished, so he released it as a book for boys and girls of all ages
