Honest question, trying to make it in good faith: would, in another scenario, an eight-year-old be able to sue someone?

No.

Or would she need to involve her parents?

Yes. Children can't sue without their legal guardians, and they can't even sign the contracts alone that the lawsuit would be attached to.
