Lilla Jönssonligan (English: The Little Jönssonleague) is a Swedish film series that consists of four movies. The film series is a spin-off of the original Jönssonligan film series. The main difference about the two series is that the main characters are portrayed as kids instead of adults in this one, hence the word "little" in the title. Rocky, the original third member, is not featured in any of the films. Unlike the "adult Jönssonligan", where the gang where bumbling anti-heroes, the "litte Jönssonligan" is often straight up heroic.

Despite the fact that the Swedish Jönssonligan originally was a remake of the Danish Olsenbanden series, the kid version was an original Swedish idea, with Denmark and Norway later following suit, in Olsenbanden Jr.

4 films have been made as of 2006. Lilla Jönssonligan och cornflakeskuppen takes place in 1953 and works as an originstory for the gang. Lilla Jönssonligan och stjärnkuppen does not take place in the same canon as the first three films or the original series.

The gang consists of the criminal genius Charles Ingvar "Sickan" Jönsson, hence the name Jönssonligan, and his two companions Harry (aka Dynamit-Harry) and Ragnar Vanheden.

The gang's arch-enemy is Morgan "Junior" Wall-Enberg and his henchman, Biffen. Loa Falkman plays Wall-Enberg "Senior" in all the films. Junior does not appear in the fourth film.
