The main story is "Time Enough For Love". I think Dora also appears in "To Sail Beyond The Sunset".
"Time Enough For Love" is something everyone ought to read. In my opinion, it's more important than Stranger.
Starship Troopers was great, but there are other novels of his that have even more important philosophical points. Starship Troopers was mainly about government and warfare. Yes, it is basically a political essay. I don't believe in everything Heinlein espouses, but damned if he doesn't make a whole lot of sense on a whole lot of points. And the way he writes it makes you WANT to agree.
And the film is just a bit of fun that has very little to do with the book.
